As a ground attendant, I witness the frustration of travelers on U.S.-bound flights who, at the boarding gate, must discard water bottles under TSA (Transportation Security Administration) rules: liquids must be in 100mL containers, max ten per passenger. This leaves them with no choice and no water. Witnessing this inspired me to design this bottle: six 100mL units plus space for four essentials. Each connects to a central ring and detaches when required. Standard caps ensure comfort, clear “100mL / 3.4oz” labels guarantee compliance, and the reusable design reduces plastic waste on flights.
