bronze cremation urns - cremation

I have a sealed bronze urn for cremation remains, can I carry this on the plane?

I'm transporting ashes by plane, but the urn is bronze. I now know that it cannot be x-rayed, yet can I still carry this on board? what about in my checked baggage? if they cannot x-ray for carry-on, how can they check its contents for checked baggage?


I can save you alot of hassle, if they cannot either x-ray or physically open that container, they are not going to allow you to carry it on. Did you know that you were going to travel with the remains? Because the funeral director should have informed

Product Description

These urns are hand-cast, which makes each of them individually unique. They are brass plated, individually handcrafted in an antique bronze, and are coated with high-quality lacquer. They feature easy closing, and permanently sealing tamper resistant plugs. These urns are handcrafted and, due to slight variations in the antique finish, no two urns are exactly alike.

Postal Service loses urn, woman's remains

AURORA - Ann Dodge worked for Continental Airlines in Denver for 33 years. She loved to travel. At her journey's end, her family wants nothing more than to find where she was taken and bring her home.

"We just consider our mom lost," her daughter, Lynn Young of Aurora, said. "It just feels like we don't have closure."

Young mailed the urn from a post office in Sun City, Ariz. on Jan. 28.

"My sister said, 'Whatever you do, don't ship it through the United States Postal Service,'" Young said.

But FedEx and UPS don't accept cremated remains. And the Transportation Security Administration will allow them only as a carry-on item and they must be removed from a metal urn.

The package's tracking number shows it was checked into the massive sorting facility in North Denver on Jan. 31. Then it disappeared.

The shipping label arrived in Young's mailbox that week. There was no package, just the tag.

"It's upsetting and it's even hard to talk about," Young said. "When it's something as important as your mom's urn, it's not like it's a book from Amazon that they lost, or something like that, where you can just order another one. This is something that can't be replaced."
