TSA Guidelines for Flying with Thanksgiving Foods
TL;DR Summary
The TSA has outlined which Thanksgiving foods can be carried through airport checkpoints and which should be checked in luggage. Solid foods like cooked mac and cheese, casseroles, and meats can be carried on, while liquids like cranberry sauce and gravy should be checked. Foods must adhere to the 3-1-1 liquid rule if carried on. Travelers should ensure food is kept at safe temperatures to prevent spoilage. Amtrak allows personal food onboard but prohibits reheating or storing it. Consideration for fellow travelers regarding food odors is advised.
