Can you bring baby medicine on a plane with KLM Royal Dutch Airlines when traveling with a baby?

 

Bringing baby medicine on a KLM flight

 

Yes. Baby medicines and baby food (including liquids) are allowed in your hand baggage on KLM. Liquids needed for infants (medication, formula, breast milk) can exceed the 100 ml rule but must be presented separately at security and may be inspected.

  • Keep medicines in carry-on — don’t pack essential meds in checked baggage.
  • Original packaging and labels help security identify contents; carry prescriptions or a doctor’s note for prescription or controlled medicines.
  • Reasonable quantities only — carry enough for the journey plus some extra for delays.
  • Syringes, droppers or inhalers for medical use are permitted; declare them to security.
  • Cooling packs/gel ice packs used for medicines or breast milk are usually allowed but may need additional screening.
  • Declare items at security and follow any alternate screening procedures requested by staff.

If unsure about a specific medicine or international rules for controlled substances, contact KLM or your embassy before travel. Safe travels with your little one!
