Yes, you can bring your Hydroflask on a plane. However, make sure it is empty when you go through the security checkpoint, as liquids are subject to restrictions. Once through security, you can refill it at a water fountain or a bottle-filling station. This not only keeps you hydrated but also helps reduce plastic waste.
