I am a father to a preschool age kid and frequently travel on airlines. This kit is meant to all fit in the tin allowing me to put it in my pocket along with some keys and I'm good to go. The bandages and sewing kit are for playground accidents and the shout wipe is for airport food accidents.

i had a kit like this a decade ago. Mine had hairbands. They kept disappearing 🤷

That's a great idea. She likely would appreciate that!

Surely you're using the sewing kit for torn clothes and not your childs wounds, right?

[-] rubbs@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

You would be correct.

No snacks? I was carrying a little bag of Cheerios for years

[-] rubbs@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

Haha. I do have a backpack in the trunk of our vehicle with emergency snacks.

Is that a knifeless Skeletool?

[-] rubbs@midwest.social 6 points 1 year ago

Very close. It's a Leatherman Style PS. Blade-less. Still has scissors and a bunch of other useful tools. I have to take it out to be inspected every time, but always gets through airport security.

That's great. I didn't know they made that. Too bad it's not available anymore.

[-] rubbs@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

You can find it on Amazon sometimes. It's available on and off. I recommend to just keep checking.

Do you get much attention at the airport security with that?

[-] cetan@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I checked Ebay and the prices are a little intense. :)

Amazing, they nick anything I have with scissors and/or screwdriver on it if I go through. Even tiny embroidery miniscissors. How come yours are allowed?
