Can you bring pumped breast milk on a plane with Avianca when traveling with a baby?

 

Bringing pumped breast milk on Avianca

 

Yes — you may bring pumped breast milk on board with Avianca. Breast milk for infants is generally allowed in carry-on and is exempt from the usual 100 ml / 3.4 oz liquid limit. At security you should declare the milk so it can be screened; screening may include X‑ray, additional swabbing, or a visual/manual inspection.

  • Carry in the cabin: keep milk with you rather than in checked baggage when possible.
  • Declare at security: tell the officer you have breast milk for an infant before screening.
  • Frozen milk and ice packs allowed: they can be used but may be subject to inspection to confirm contents.
  • Label and pack well: use sealed containers, label with date/name, and an insulated cooler if you need to keep milk cold.
  • Bring extra: carry more than needed for delays or missed connections.
  • International travel: generally permitted for infant use, but check destination customs rules if concerned.
