When I went to a remote island the other day, I asked airport security if I could bring in more than 3oz of powdered milk and was told it was okay, but I am not sure if my English was understood, so let me check here.
A large baby bottle can hold 8oz, so I guess I can bring in 8oz. ? I know I need to because I will declare it to security. I am thinking that for long flights, such as going to Japan, I can just bring the powder and make it on the plane. Any advice in this area would be appreciated.

The TSA website explains the following regarding powdered milk, etc.
"Powdered milk, breast milk, infant beverages, baby/toddler food in quantities exceeding 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters ☺ (including puree bags) are permitted as carry-on baggage and need not fit in a quart size bag. Powdered milk, breast milk, infant beverages, and baby/toddler food products (including puree bags)} are considered medically necessary liquids. This also applies to breast milk and formula cooling accessories such as ice packs, freezer packs, and gel packs (with or without breast milk). The child or infant does not need to accompany or travel with you to bring breast milk, formula, and/or related supplies.

At the beginning of the screening process, notify TSA personnel that you are carrying more than 3.4 ounces of formula, breast milk, infant beverages, baby/toddler food products (including puree pouches). Remove these items from your carry-on baggage and inspect them separately from your other belongings. TSA personnel may need to inspect liquids for explosives or hidden prohibited items."

Thank you for checking !
I was able to confirm that you can bring in more than 3.4 oz, but I'm not sure what the maximum is. I'm going to the islands next month, so I'll ask the attendant directly again.

I'm afraid it's not milk, but I always bring more than 1 liter total of water and other liquids.
At that time, I am told that more liquid is not a problem for the baby.

Yes, I have been back to Japan 7 times since my child was born and I have a 500ml plastic bottle and a 650ml water bottle with barley tea, water, etc. !
I don't know about other companies as it is only JAL, but I think you can usually bring your own for children so please do ask😊.
