Packing Contact Lens?

[julieanne]

I'm having a blonde moment, not to say panic - can't remember where I packed my contact lens on my last trip.

Can I put 30 daily disposable lens in my hand luggage or do they need to be in checked bags???

I'd put them in your hand luggage and then you know there's no possibility of them getting lost. If they're gel, then they need to go into your clear plastic 8 x 8 resealable bag inside your hand luggage (which you get out when you go through security).

If they involve contact lens fluid, then this needs to go in the plastic bag.

Always hand language Julie.
I would prefer to pack mine in the cases , mind it is only one set, but it gets a bit chilly with the cases. I ususlly put the lens solution in the cases no problem. I also want to make sure I know I will be able to see when I get to Florida I don't wear the lens on the flight, my eyes get too tired.

I always pack the balance in my case and a couple of pairs in my hand luggage, they seem to be okay with that.
