Perfumes and candles on the plane

[wong_watkins 1]

I'm flying to Hong Kong next month and I have bought some perfumes and candles for my relatives and friends as souvenirs, but I'm starting to wonder if it's going to be a problem when they scan/search my suitcase at the airport since perfume is a type if flammable substance.

Anybody had any related experience?

I think you're ok with those if you check them...but check the link to be certain...For the return, other countries may have additional restrictions.

It's okay to bring them. Pack them in your luggage that you will check-in at the counter that will be stored underneath the plane. I brought stuff like that on my last trip to Ukraine. It will save you the trouble of being held up in line and them taking the said items away from you.

I brought a few plants over from our last trip from the Philippines wrapped them in news paper packed them in our box didn't have any problems.

As long as they are in your checked luggage, it should be just fine.
