Can you take an opened bottle of Liquor on an Airplane (Southwest)?
I have a half empty bottle of scotch and a Southwest flight from San Diego to Sacramento. Can I take the bottle with me, or is that illegal? If it's legal, should I put it in my carry-on or my checked luggage? Thanks! Is it legal to put the bottle in my luggage that gets checked in?

Carry on...but I really don't know if it's legal.

You can not have booze on a plane except for the drinks that they serve.
3 :
no half empty bottles allowed on any flight...anywhere in the world! Only unopened bottles that are being transported in carry-on baggage is allowed but nothing opened!

No one will know either way, as long as you don't plan on taking it out and drinking it. People come through the checkpoint all the time with bottles of liquor, wine and beer, we say nothing because it's none of our business. Think about this, I've seen a lot of flasks go through the x-ray, knowing there's liquor in them. Considering it's open, I'd take it on the flight with you, if you rather pack it then wrap a good amount of clothing around it so it doesn't get broken. If your worried about TSA taking it, don't, as I said it's none of our business, unless it's above the alcohol proof allowance.
