How then was I was able to unwittingly carry a 200ml hairspray can - twice the liquid limit - onto a Qantas flight to the US, after two separate supposedly rigorous security checks?

It would be very easy to fly with hairspray in a carry-on. They make those little purse sized bottles of it - I have some tucked away for when I travel. Mine came with those "name" brand shampoos. I would imagine it would be easily flammable were a match to be ignited near it.

Yep hairspray - match = boom!

Pretty soon I’m guessing no carry ons

On my last few flights, I have not even had a “carry-on”. Just a rather largish purse, in which I can take my quart size baggie with essentials, cosmetics, and the ever essential panti-liners (Hey, you just never know). I even take my 7-inch laptop in my purse.

Really saves alot of time at security, and once on the plane, I just laugh at all the other passengers trying to squeeze their over sized bags in the over head bins.

Thanks to TravelSmith, I’ve been able to purchase a very light weight wardrobe (mix and match) that will all fit in one piece of luggage, even for a two-week trip. I’ve learned to travel light.
