Can you bring baby food pouches on a plane with Etihad Airways when traveling with a baby?

 

Can I bring baby food pouches on Etihad?

 

Yes. Baby food pouches, formula and expressed breast milk are allowed on Etihad flights in carry‑on baggage even if they exceed the usual 100 ml liquid limit. These items are treated as infant necessities.

  • Declare at security — tell the security staff you have baby food/milk; items will be screened and may need extra inspection or opening for testing.
  • Carry a reasonable amount for the duration of travel (including delays).
  • Keep items accessible — you may be asked to remove them from your bag for separate screening.
  • Onboard service — cabin crew can assist with warming pouches but policies vary; ask them politely.
  • International travel — check destination biosecurity/customs rules, as some countries restrict bringing in food or dairy.

If you want, tell me your departure airport and destination and I can give more specific screening or customs tips.
