Moving to Iceland… What will Icelandair allow me to take on the plane?

I am going to be moving to Iceland SOON. I want to take a bike over (to save money on transportation).

I am a Vegan, if you will. I eat mostly raw foods and am health conscious (a health nut, if you will). I stay quite physically active so I should be able to get a job.

What I am wondering, though…. What can I take on the plane??

Like, I have these herbal formulas that I take (liquid, called tinctures) in quart jars.

My whole family is also going and the big question for my mom is… Can we take things like beans and/or rice or other grains in luggage? Could I take snacks, like dried, raw chips, dried fruit or anything like that, on the plane? Its a six hour flight and I would want to bring something to eat, or maybe just fast… I have not given it much thought.

Also, what about taking vacuum bags over??? I would guess that they might break it open? It would be nice if we could vacuum pack our clothes and such.

Thanks for the help!

042810 Simply Survival – Foodsaver Sucks, Part 2

Foodsaver food vacuuming system, part 2. Cool tunes from Dr. Authur. Kasin shows how to use a small nail hole in the jar lid to easily release jar vacuum. Using recycled Mylar in food storage. She discusses pros and cons of food preservation using Foodsaver poly-bags, Mylar bags, and canning jars. When using the poly-bags, the layered approach is better – a recycled Mylar bag inside a Foodsaver poly–bag, double sealed on both ends.

Vacuum Sealing house hold Bottles for food storage in food vacuum bags. I use this when i need to open a 5gal super pail. It would take for ever to eat 50 lb of rice. So i repack it into smaller containers and seal back up the bucket.
