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

 

Bringing baby medicine on Etihad Airways

 

Yes. Etihad allows baby medicines and essential baby food/liquids in cabin even if over 100 ml. Follow these practical steps to avoid delays and stay prepared:

  • Carry medicines in your hand luggage so they are accessible during the flight.
  • Keep medicines in original labeled packaging and bring prescriptions or a doctor’s note for prescription or injectable meds.
  • Declare liquids at security — tell the screening officer and present medicines separately for inspection.
  • For injections or sharps, carry a prescription and use a safe container; inform security staff.
  • If a medication needs refrigeration, use an insulated cold pack and mention this to cabin crew; check limits on ice packs.
  • Bring enough supply for the whole trip plus extra in case of delays, and keep a copy of prescriptions.
  • Check destination rules for controlled substances or limits before travel.

 

If unsure about a specific medicine, ask Etihad or your departure airport security in advance for confirmation.
