They’re one of the must-have souvenirs from Disney’s “Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge” in California and Florida, but good luck trying to get the “Star Wars”-themed Coke bottles home. The Transportation Security Administration has officially banned the grenade-shaped bottles from both carry-on and checked luggage. The announcement was made before the Florida version of “Galaxy’s Edge” opened at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
The reason for the ban is the soda bottles, which are designed to resemble the film saga’s thermal detonators, look too much like a replica explosive and replicas are not allowed on planes, TSA spokesperson Jim Gregory told. Some travelers who took the empty soda bottles through airport security said they had no issues bringing them on their flights.
