Definitely fine.

You can bring full bottles of wine or spirits too.

No liquid rules any more?

Domestic has no restrictions anymore, right?

 

[Hvr]

Were there ever liquid rules for flights departing from Australian domestic terminals?

There's never been restrictions if it's sealed.

The only thing they can get you on is opened alcohol or alcohol in non retail packaging (ie a flask).

There's no border security for domestic flights. No issues taking bulk liquid on domestic flights either. I've taken many bottles of wine without issue. Opening the wine mid-flight would be a no-no.

Nope.

Class E poisons like Monster might be an issue? Like, he could spray it all over the place & kill dozens …

I took 2 bottles of wine once DOM flight Adelaide to Sydney several years ago. No issues.

Within reason - you can't travel with more than 5L of alcohol (24%+) or anything above 70% as that classifies as DG.

No issues with small amounts of liquids on domestic flights.

Can't bring tins of solvent / paint over a certain size as my brother in law found a few years ago on a Tiger flight. The cost of checking luggage was more than the original one-way fare.

On the topic of flying with energy drinks, I was surprised to see Red Bull cans in the AA DFW flagship lounge the other day. I made myself a couple of Red Bull & Vodkas before getting on QF8.

Red Bull has been in AA lounges for years. I've used my WP free drink tickets to pick up cans as required.

Yeah I’m talking about self service, I don’t recall seeing them in the flagship lounge before - but I could be wrong

Those drink vouchers (not WP, SG got them too) are long gone.

Makes no sense … gives you wings … is the opposition.
