Formula prep while travelling on a plane help!

I'm travelling abroad with a 6 month old and I can't get my head around how to organise the bottles for the 4 hour plane journey 🤯
What does everyone do while flying, airport etc.
I'm going to pack a large tub of formula in my suitcase and one in hubby's suitcase.
It's the plane hand luggage journey I'm struggling with.
Help 😂🤯

You're allowed to take 200ml cartons through as even though they are liquids over 100ml, there is an exception for baby milk and medicines that you'll need during the journey.

If you're worried phone the airport to confirm but it would be very strange if they denied it, it's been allowed everywhere for decades.

You can even take bottles of made-up formula but the cartons will be more sterile as no requirement to keep in a cool pack etc.

Take more than you need in case of delays. It would be horrible if there was an emergency and you got stuck on the tarmac for hours and ran out of milk to feed your baby.

What Bertiebotts says.
And dont forget the return journey too - although those can go in the hold.

From Exeter airport website:

You absolutely can take formula cartons/bottles through security in amounts larger than 100mls
