はい, you can bring a razor on a plane, but the type of razor determines how you should pack it. Here’s a breakdown of the rules:
✅ Allowed in Carry-On Luggage
-
Disposable Razors: Both fully disposable razors and those with detachable cartridges (例えば。, Gillette Mach3, Schick Hydro 5) are permitted in carry-on bags. These are considered safe because the blades are not easily removable.
-
Electric Razors: Electric shavers (例えば。, Philips Norelco OneBlade, Braun Series 7) are allowed in both carry-on and checked baggage.
If your electric razor contains lithium-ion batteries, it’s advisable to place it in your carry-on luggage due to FAA regulations about lithium batteries in checked baggage.
⚠️ Restrictions for Carry-On Luggage
-
Safety Razors: These are permitted in carry-on luggage only if the blades are removed. The blades must be stored in checked baggage. TSA officers are not authorized to remove the blades from the holder, so ensure they are removed before screening.
-
Straight Razors: Similar to safety razors, straight razors are allowed in carry-on bags only if the blades are removed and packed in checked luggage.
❌ Prohibited in Carry-On Luggage
-
Loose Razor Blades: Individual razor blades, such as those used in box cutters or utility knives, are not allowed in carry-on luggage. These must be placed in checked baggage.
Additional Tips
-
Shaving Cream or Gel: If you’re bringing shaving cream or gel, remember that the TSA’s 3-1-1 rule applies. Liquids must be in containers of 3.4 オンス (100 ミリリットル) or less and placed in a quart-sized, クリア, 再封印可能なビニール袋.
-
包装:
Any sharp objects in checked bags should be sheathed or securely wrapped to prevent injury to baggage handlers and inspectors.
Always check with your airline and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for the most current regulations before traveling.
