Can you bring baby medicine on a plane with Cathay Pacific when traveling with a baby?

 

Bringing baby medicine on Cathay Pacific

 

Yes — you can bring baby medicine in your carry‑on when flying with Cathay Pacific. Liquids and gels for infants (medicines, formula, breast milk, sterilized water) are generally exempt from the 100 ml rule but must be a reasonable amount for the journey and declared at security. Keep medicines in your hand luggage, in original packaging when possible.

  • Declare items at security screening so they can be inspected or tested (this is routine).
  • Carry prescriptions or a doctor’s note for prescription medicines and syringes/needles (e.g., insulin) to avoid delays.
  • Keep medicines accessible — don’t pack essential meds in checked baggage.
  • Temperature‑sensitive meds: bring an insulated bag and notify cabin crew if you need assistance; refrigeration on board is not guaranteed.
  • International travel: check destination rules for controlled substances and import limits before you travel.
