Can you bring breast milk on a plane with Virgin Atlantic when traveling with a baby?

 

Bringing breast milk on Virgin Atlantic

 

Yes — you can bring breast milk on a Virgin Atlantic flight. It is treated as a medically necessary liquid and is exempt from the 100 ml/3.4 oz restriction. At security you should declare it and present it for separate screening.

  • Carry it in your carry-on (recommended) — frozen, chilled with ice packs, or refrigerated is fine.
  • Declare at security so officers can screen containers; additional checks or testing may be required.
  • Breast pumps and spare batteries are allowed in carry-on; protect spare lithium batteries’ terminals.
  • Label containers and bring extra supplies (bottles, storage bags, cooler) and a copy of your baby’s travel documents if helpful.
  • Breastfeeding onboard is permitted; cabin crew can assist if needed, but they may not provide refrigeration—so plan accordingly.
  • Check destination rules (customs/entry) for any local restrictions on transporting food for infants.
