Not always. There was a time when carrying baby food pouches in an airplane created problems. This doesn’t happen any longer. Most modern pouches are designed to stay intact under the air pressure that is created during an air flight. But that does not mean your baby food pouches will survive checked baggage for sure. Rough handling can break them. Or there can be a number of factors completely unrelated to air pressure that can puncture your baby food pouches. It is advisable to keep them in a zip-lock, so that even if they explode (for any reason), you don't end up with food spilled all over your luggage.
While explosion of baby food pouches during an air flight may not be such a major issue, other issues can create problems in your journey. Airport security is one of them. You will have to contact your local airport authority to find if they allow parents to carry baby food pouches with them. While some airlines and airports will not pose a problem, others may make you pass through a strict security check before allowing you to board an airplane with baby pouches. Rules vary from country to country, so if you are about to board an international flight, it is always a good idea to check rules beforehand.
Baby pouches are a relatively new method to feed children. They have replaced jars, bottles, and other old methods of feeding kids. Because of their ease of use and economic prices, many parents are opting for plastic pouches instead of large jars or bottles. There are a number of reasons for this preference. For starters, these pouches are easy to carry and store. They are use-and-throw so you don’t have to wash them. There is little wastage of food as most of these packages contain only a small amount of food, which a baby can easily eat. And to top it all, children prefer them to the traditional spoon-feeding approach.
Baby food pouches offer a variety of foods. There are yummy sweets and healthy delights. There are carrots, green vegetables, juices, and plenty of other food and beverages to choose from. This wealth of choice in food pouches ensures that parents do not have to choose between nutrition and ease. Although some airport authorities may not allow you to carry these pouches on the flight, the next best thing is to buy them from the destination city, as they are easily available almost everywhere.
