Worked perfectly—and, I suspect, gave her a good excuse to eat a bunch of Pringles.

Yeah, was also going to suggest this.

Can you fly with food from outside the airport?

Crumpled parchment all around the cookies to fill the Tupperware. When you shake the box, there shouldn’t be much movement.

You could then wrap that in Saran Wrap and freeze the whole thing but you don’t need to.

Sikorsky has a complete line of food transport containers that are made to be attached to helicopters.

Just wanted to say I love this thread.

I love the Pringles can idea but I think my cookies are too large for that opening...

Clearly, you need to fly private with a Rimowa for the cookies.

Take your cookies, stack them with parchment between each, or freeze single layer then stack. Arrange stacks so they fit perfectly in the bag. Wrap each stack with Saran Wrap or parchment and heavy duty foil. Keep frozen until you are ready to travel. Wrap in clothing to prevent breakage.

Use wax paper to separate layers

I think I have seen popcorn as a filler recommended. Crumbled aluminum foil maybe.

Costco has some good Tupperware sets!

Rubbermaid brilliance

I’m flying to visit my child at college this weekend and want to bring her favorite choco chip cookies made with love by me! I actually want to bring 2 batches for sharing

I’d like to transport them in my carryon in “hard” tupperware so they don’t get crushed (I own that quasi-disposable tupperware sold in grocery stores that is pretty easy to bend) , and want to fit two of the largest containers I can into one side of my carryon (leaving the other side for my clothes).

I can measure containers on amazon etc but wondered if anyone has a recommendation for a go-to they use for this purpose.

A long shot but … thanks!
