Despite the long list of regulations for air flight, the TSA is less strict on the topic of travelers' medications. Travelers are permitted to carry only 3.4 ounces of liquid in their carry-on bag, but the TSA does not limit the amount of liquid medication you can carry onto a plane. Other medication, including pills and vitamins, are also permitted in your carry-on luggage in unlimited amounts.
The TSA has very clearly defined rules when it comes to the transporting of alcohol on a flight. If the alcohol content is greater than 70 percent (140 proof) then it is not allowed on the plane at all. If it is between 24 percent and 70 percent, you are allowed to pack five liters worth of alcohol in your checked bag. Mini bottles are usually 1.7 ounces, and you are allowed to carry those on the plane so long as they are all in one quart-size zip top bag.
