    Can you buy P20 in US?

    We normally buy P20 at airport but I believe it will be covered by the current restrictions. I read that you can buy perfume but you pick it up on your return.

    My husband found this product useful for his endless rounds of golf he plays whilst in sunnier climes. I know Superdrug sell it in 50ml sizes so I could get that for the first couple of days but would need to find a larger bottle for the rest of the time.

    All this last minute preparation, it's no wonder I'm frazzled by the time I get to the plane

    I'm sure I've seen it for sale duty free on the plane but I don't remember seeing it for sale in Florida.

    If you've booked your flight, try the airline's website to see if they have any info about what's available via their own duty free.

    I would suggest you buy it here and put it in your Checked in baggage.

    I bought my last supply in Asda as it was cheaper.

    Wilinsons were the cheapest last year at around £13 for the 200ml bottle, you'll have to check that size in or you can buy 2 100ml bottles and put them in your clear bag for carry on (personally I think if it was me I'd do that because if it leaks in your checked luggage it will really stain your clothes. As long as they fit in your ziplock type bag you'll be fine but if you take a half empty 200ml bottle that will be confiscated, as none of the containers must be capable of holding more than 100ml.

    When this first happened you could buy make up and suncream etc and pick it up as you boarded the plane same as with the drinks so it might be worth checking to see if thats possible.

    We've not found P20 in the US for sale at all yet.

    Thanks for that info, looks like I'm off to Willkinsons and Asda to look for 200ml bottles.

    I use an empty tablet size soap powder boxes to get two bone china mugs out to Florida for my tea [:I] Showing my age now, I used to buy them out there but now take them over each time. The P20 bottle could go in there and hopefully will survive the journey.

    I'll also check Virgins website to see if they stock it on the plane. I've already sent an email asking for confirmation that it's ok to check aerosoles into the hold. DH is very fussy about the make of deodarant spray he uses.

    He keeps spraying on the Lynx hasn't quite had the same effect as the adverts but he lives in hope.[msnwink]

    THey sell Lynx in the US -under a different name though -think its AXE or something.
    I used to be like you, I used to pack everything for every comfort for everyone whilst away [I had a wry smile over the bone China mugs -been there -took a Cup and Saucer for my Mum in law once!]
    However, since owning my home there, I have every comfort needed [hopefully my guests do too!!] and have found they sell everything I have lugged over for years -so take a good look around Publix if they don't have your requirements in the villa you stay in -tough luck if you are in a hotel!!

    Yes I've seen Axe in Walmart but as I said he's very fussy about the brands he uses, if I can get the Lynx out there he would prefer it. Still no reply from Virgin except for the automated response one.

    Afraid I have to use a fine bone china mug so will always take one/two away with me then I'm happy Well if you're taking the teabags why not the mugs

    Managed to find someone selling P20 on Ebay in 100ml sizes so DH can take it onboard as part of his allowance.

    they dont sell it over there but if you buy it at the airport after you have gone through the security checks you will be fine. we also use P20 fantastic product though when I came back recently from orlando Iwent to wilkinsons and saw it for 5 pounds cheaper, oh well next time.

    Price in Wilkinson's for P20 was £18 200ml, Ebay 4 x 100ml £30 incl p&p. DH wants to pack it rather than carry it in his handlugge[V] as he says it survived Royal Mail treatment it should be ok.
