Yes, milk for an infant or toddler can go through security in carry-on bags in amounts over 3.4 ounces when it’s packed for the child. Flying with a baby turns tiny details into big ones. Milk is near the top of that list. You don’t want to reach the airport and find out a bottle,

No, a B-2 visitor stay does not allow paid work, freelance gigs, hands-on services, or day-to-day labor in the United States.
