can you take powdered formula on the plane?

Or do I need to pack it...It's like a half full BJ's size powdered formula container!

TIA!

I usually just brought over what I needed for the travel day.

When we cruised, I had to pack it for the week (can't get it on the ship) so I packed the cans into ziplocs and double bagged them. Both cans got crushed though, but it was useable

And the bag got flagged by security, guess formula looks like something ELSEChat Icon

I would bring in the carryone the plastic container with the measured amounts (my Sassy one holds enough for 4 bottles). I would pack the big canister wrapped up in the suitcase and check it.

I would maybe call the airline just so you know for sure. We brought RTF formula and they had to check them with some gun first at the check gate, and then during baggage. I felt like an @$$ with so many people waiting and they had to check every single one. But again this was RTF, so I'm not sure if powder is different. We also flew american.
