Air Travel Restrictions on AS/Colognes?

[Snargle]

I'm going to Switzerland next month for a couple of weeks and would like to bring some European aftershaves and colognes back to the U.S.A. Anything I purchase would go into my checked baggage. I'm wondering if there are any restrictions on the quantity of such alcohol-based items that I can pack? Since I only get over there every 2-3 years, I'd like to stock up, but I'd hate to spend the money only to have most of my purchases confiscated at the Zurich airport!

I don't believe that you will have a problem in your checked baggage- I have never been asked about the contents of my suitcase apart from the usual security quiz. Just be sure to wrap your goodies carefully!

Thanks, David. I can assure you that double (or triple) wrapping in heavy plastic will be the rule. The last thing I want is a suitcase full of Pitralon and Speick-soaked clothing!

Declare it for duties and customs control, but you can pack it in your checked luggage no problem.

Of course! It might be handy to pack a few zip-lock bags and a couple of sheets of bubble-wrap.
