So how do American flyers cope without liquids or gels?
Half say they toss them into checked bags; another fourth say they will buy them on arrival; and 8% do without.
Those were the results of a late August survey by TNS Travel & Transport, a global research company.
The impact of the ban has also led to faster boarding of planes, according to airline officials.
That’s the case because there are fewer bag-carrying customers clogging the aisles.
The trade-off is longer waits at baggage carousels.
