From: "Federal Aviation Administration" Are you shipping supplies, personal protective equipment (PPE) or laptops? Have you checked whether your shipment includes dangerous goods (aka hazardous materials)? Some common items, such as cleaning supplies, hand sanitizer, or mobile devices and laptops containing lithium batteries, can pose a danger in transportation when not properly handled, packaged or labeled. For example, most hand sanitizers, including wipes, contain alcohol and are flammable in nature. Whether you are traveling by aircraft or shipping products, the FAA has resources to help you learn how to keep products safe: ?’ Visit the PackSafe website to learn about updated limits for passengers traveling with hand sanitizer and other information about what you can bring along as a passenger. ?’ Visit our SafeCargo website for interactive shipping guides on flammable liquids (such as hand sanitizer), aerosols, and battery powered equipment. Sending packages by U.S. Mail? ?’ Visit the United States Postal Service (USPS) website for U.S. Mail tips and information, including an ??Alert?? to learn about mailing hand sanitizer.

The risk starts well before the airport. Cargo safety and preventing undeclared dangerous goods is everyone's responsibility.
