Aerosols can be carried in hand luggage or a suitcase, but if in hand luggage, they must comply with the TSA 3-1-1 rule: containers should not exceed 3.4 ounces (100 ml) and must be placed in a single quart-sized, clear, resealable bag. Always check airline and local regulations as they may vary, but generally, larger aerosol products should go in checked baggage to avoid issues.
