I use one of those nylon zip-up shaving kit bags, but always seem to
have trouble packing that big lump, especially since it usually goes
in toward the end, with last-minute stuff. Do you have a toiletry kit
you really like, that's easy to pack?

Don't use one at all any more. Just bung the things in the case
separately. Anything likely to leak, like shampoo, just put them in
individual plastic bags.

More precisely, the rules don't allow a tube capable of holding more
than three ounces, even if it is actually holding barely enough to
brush your teeth once. Several people have reported having their
nearly-empty tubes of toothpaste confiscated.

Having said that, I recently travelled with someone who successfully
went through security at SFO, ZUR, and FRA, and was allowed to keep a
500ml thermos bottle. It was empty each time, but clearly larger than
the allowed size.

I've more or less given up on toiletry kits and pack everything separately.
I pack very small backpacks and simply can't afford the space. Sometimes
I use ziploc plastic bags.

Lots of Greetings!

Magda had better things to do. But Mike gave you a very good suggestion... Take it.
