jumpseating in uniform

[AZaviator]

I will be jumpseating later this week for the first time since the ban of liquids. I wanted to hear recent experiences of anyone jumpseating in uniform and if you were or were not able to carry liquids in your bag. I've read that flight crew members in uniform are exempt but am still 100% sure and don't want to find out the hard way.

Thanks in advance for any input.

While in uniform, I've had no troubles at all.

- I hide my ( mini-sized Hotel ) shampoo bottle in my rectum.

- The toothpaste tube snakes nicely around my testicles. ( Remove a small portion from a full tube so you have more flexibility.)

- I have changed from Listerine liquid to the now popular Breath Strips.

- I fill packets of hair gel, utilizing small "snack size" Zip-Lock (tm) bags, and place those under my arm pits.

Security is paramount.

In uniform, no problem. Not in uniform, just a regular passenger.

Because it's easier for terrorists to get an airline crew ID than it is for them to get a uniform.

Oh wait...

Besides for being informed by a TSA agent that I am not "flight crew" (after walking through the metal detector in my UPS uniform) and being informed that UPS is "not commercial", I have had no problems.

Commuted in uniform- no problem.

Commercial paid ticket- traveled in uniform, again no problems.
