Carry on cooler info found for Delta

Post by Capn Dan and Ruby »

I found these guidelines as I was reviewing my luggage requirements for Delta:

Dry-ice packages in amounts of 5.5 lbs. (2.5 kg) or less is allowed when used to cool non-hazardous perishables in carry-on or checked baggage. The package must:
•meet carry-on baggage restrictions
•allow the release of carbon dioxide
•state on the package, "Dry Ice" or "Carbon Dioxide Solid"
•specify the net weight of the dry-ice material on the packaging
•include the contents being cooled, in writing, on the packaging

If possible, instead of dry ice, we encourage the use of gel packs or similar products to keep frozen perishable items fresh. For more information, you can download the Guidelines to Transport Dry Ice.

Wet-ice shipments are not allowed as carry-on baggage, checked baggage or cargo on Delta or Delta Connection® flights.

Never thought of listing contents to make life easier!!! And Gel packs... who knew!
