In cabin baggage
Moroccanoil Treatment counts as a liquid/gel under the standard airport rules. That means containers up to 100ml (3.4 fl oz) in your cabin bag, all fitting inside a single 1-litre clear plastic bag. A few airports with CT scanners (Gatwick, Edinburgh, Bristol, Amsterdam, parts of JFK) allow up to 2 litres, but never plan around that for both ends of your trip.
In checked luggage
Moroccanoil travels fine in checked luggage. Wrap in a sealed plastic bag — at altitude the pump can leak and the oil stains everything.

FAQs
Does Moroccanoil count as a liquid?
Yes — security treats anything pourable, spreadable or pasty as a liquid, including creams, balms in jars, and serums.
What's the smartest way to travel with Moroccanoil?
Decant a few days' worth into a 30ml or 50ml refillable jar from Muji, Sephora or Boots. You keep your full-size pot at home and your liquids bag stays light.
Will an unopened Moroccanoil get confiscated if it's over 100ml?
Yes. Security goes by the container size printed on the bottle, not whether it's sealed. New, unopened, half-full — none of that matters.
