Star Wars Galaxy's Edge is filled with some really cool souvenirs. And recently, a controversial decision from the TSA was announced, banned one of these from being taken on planes. The offending item are the Coke bottle replicas which are shaped like thermal detonators. They would not be allowed in carry-on or checked bags on any flight. Thankfully, that decision has now been reversed.
Originally, the TSA stated that replicas of explosive devices will not be allowed on planes. A TSA representative told CNN that the souvenirs filled with sugar-water could be seen by some people as hand grenades.

Thanks for asking! Replica and inert explosives aren't allowed in either carry-on or checked bags.

Following the TSA decision was a swarm of people asking why, and included people openly mocking them. A spokesperson for TSA weighed in on the new changes for the souvenirs: "We have completed our review, and instructed our officers to treat these as an oversized liquid," she told CNN. "Because these bottles contain liquids larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters), they should be put in checked baggage or emptied to be brought on as carry-on item."
So if you plan on picking up these Coke products while at Galaxy's Edge, make sure you follow the new rules and don't bring a full one on as a carry-on. Aside from the cool souvenirs, there is a lot of cool food and drinks available at the theme park, and check out what we thought about Galaxy's Edge as a whole.
