Yes, 200 ml of liquid is generally allowed on flights, but it must be in a container that holds no more than 100 ml (3.4 ounces). All such containers should fit comfortably within a single, transparent, re-sealable plastic bag of a maximum capacity not exceeding 1 liter (approximately 1 quart). This bag must be taken out of your carry-on luggage and displayed separately for screening at airport security. Exceptions apply for medications, baby foods, and special dietary requirements, which should be declared at security checks.
