formula on plane

[MirandaG]

Travelling to Dublin tomorrow with British Midland. Do the cabin crew have a scissors/knife to open a carton of ready made formula?
How else can I get it open?! The BAA website say that it is ok to carry cartons of formula but no mention of opening it!
Thanks

can you not rip it open like a milk carton

They are tough to get into, but you can rip them open.

can't you stick it in bottle beforehand?

Custardo thsi is what I'd like to do but is it ok - I thought it was only ok for an hour. Don't think i could rip it open [wimp]

I guess i could open it in the car park, put it in the bottle then it wouldn't be much more than an hour. Am I mad? There must be a simple solution. With the last baby I used to bring bottles of water on to the plane and add the formula but you're not allowed to do that any more...apparently. Give me strength - I haven't even packed

hi, i have flown 5 times with ds who is 15 mnths - have not had any problems with taking bottles of water and powder formula - they just made me taste the water (i flew with flybe and easyjet)
