Re: [Everything doTERRA] Re: TSA in Salt Lake City

I recently traveled with my friend out of the SLC airport.  I had checked my oils in my luggage.  But she took her through security.  She had them in the appropriate sizes (her 5 and 15ml bottles) in a clear 1 qt. ziploc bag.  But security was a NIGHTMARE for her!!  We were actually traveling in a group of over 30 people.  When they asked her if she was traveling with anyone, she (luckily!) only said her husband.  They said they would have to search everyone that she was traveling with.  Luckily, she didn't tell them the REST of our group, or we would have been there for two hours!  They searched my friend and her husband - patted them down, searched every single one of their bags and then did the bomb test thing on every single one of her bottles of oils.  It took over 20 minutes.  Good thing we were early for our flight!  They put up a REAL stink about it and ALMOST confiscated every single oil she had!  It was super obnoxious!

Anyway - just want to give people a heads up that it's not ALWAYS going to be easy to travel with your oils.  I say just check them in your luggage instead of trying to take them through security!  Mine still work just fine!

ray will affect their frequency there were no problems.
