Flying to Mt for Christmas and want take enough frozen crawfish tail meat/boudin for several meals. Probably 30#’s total, can it fly as my personal baggage since they don’t allow carry ons on my flight? Flying out of MSY and prefer not to get locked up prior to departure.

I would think security would be more of your issue than the carry-on. The ice could violate the no liquids greater than 3.4oz rule

Could go without ice if I froze all since trip is 5-6 hours.

Check it. Or fedex it to your destination.

As long as it is 100% frozen and no liquid tsa can see you should be good

I’ve taken frozen stuff with me. Wrapped in newspaper for some insulation and it worked out really well.

You can actually check an ice chest. Almost ran into this issue last year in MT. I was gonna get the meat as cold as possible in ice, then drain said ice chest, dry it, wrap meat in several plastic bags, seal ice chest, then check it. Cheaper than shipping meat as that was 5-7$ per #. However, with only 30#, may not be too bad to ship. We had over 200# of deboned cleaned meat.

When I went to Exuma this year I carried mine as carry on but I had my camera in it. There was a guy on the same flight with one that was full of frozen ribeyes and sandwich meat that was not frozen but was in the original packaging that was unopened. He did not have Ice in it though.
Don’t really need ice in there as long as the stuff is frozen.

I’ve taken my yeti bag as a carry on full of boudin on a few trips. I got checked by Tsa ever time after the scan and they always laugh once they see what is in the bag.
ETA it’s the mid size older bag with zipper on top. It fits perfect in the overhead bin.
