Traveling with powder infant formula for my grandbaby.

With the powder infant formula in short supply I’ve purchased formula here in Maryland because my daughter has had no luck finding the brand she uses in Dallas.  I plan to visit her next month and need to know if I can travel with the 10 containers of powder formula I’ve purchased???

Put it in your checked bag and be mindful of the 50lb limit.

Just a thought, if she can't get it now I would ship it direct to your daughter with insurance and tracking via 2-3 day carrier of your choice. Sounds like she needs it now.

I would have more anxiety about packing it and having TSA inspect it (possibly contaminating opening packages, etc..., or even worse having it stolen since it is valuable at this point.)

My 2 cents your mileage may vary
