Yes, creatine can be taken on a plane. It is allowed in both carry-on and checked luggage. However, there are some guidelines to follow:
- If carrying powdered creatine in your carry-on, keep it in its original packaging or a clearly labeled container to avoid confusion during security checks.
- Powders in carry-on bags exceeding 12 ounces (350 ml) may be subject to additional screening.
- Tablets or gummies are less scrutinized and easier to travel with in carry-on luggage.
- In checked luggage, there are generally fewer restrictions, and packing creatine there can simplify the process.
- For international flights, regulations may vary by country, so it's best to check the destination's guidelines.
- Being prepared for additional screening and having the creatine clearly labeled helps avoid delays.
Overall, creatine travel is hassle-free if packed and labeled properly, and following the 12-ounce powder guideline for carry-ons can help with smoother security checks.
