Pol, I have no other choice but to view the words that you write as pertinent to the topic at hand.
So, if you say:
A well reasoned interpretation, with which I am confident everyone but you in this thread will agree, is that you are being coy. That you are making a point to say that it is illegal and that those that ship are liars.
And when you bring O2 generators into the discussion, you are de-facto comparing them to Longshot entries. You are elevating the discussion to an airline tragedy.
I submit that a Fed Ex package with my beer is no different than my checked bag full of beer.
If your airline has some other policy about that then say so.
Beer is not dispensed in aerosol cans.
Careful with the quoting... because you missed half the converation.
I asked... am I to ASSUME it is illegal? I never said it was, and I think throughout this thread that has been well established that it is not. I didnt know, which is why I posted what you decided to quote.
Throughout the thread it became apparent that it is not illegal, but it is a company policy. So, then I asked, are we in fact decieving the shipper in order to get them to ship something that they would not otherwise? The answer was yes. Okay, so there is some level of deciet involved in order to get the outcome that you desire, that was established.
My point with the aerosols was not hard to understand. There is no danger in carrying more than 3 oz of any gel or liquid on a plane either, just as you state there is no danger in shipping alcohol, but there is a policy that you cannot do either. Company policy or otherwise, there is no danger in carrying more than 3oz of any liquid, gel or aerosol... there is no danger in carrying alcohol. In that respect they are the same, but we follow rules with no point, daily... quote that post by me, please... it is a few numbers back.
That is my point.
I dont care if you have to lie or decieve to ship something that is against the shippers policy. But if it is an apple, dont call it an orange... it is an apple.
