If its under 100mls you can put in hand luggage, if not just pack it in the case, wrap well incase of breakage

How big is the Calpol bottle, if it's over 100ml it needs to go into your luggage unless it's a prescription bottle.

If you don't want to take a bottle, you could always take some of the Calpol sachets instead.

I always put Calpol and Ibupfofen in the case and ussually in a plastic carrier tied in a knot in case of breakages or leaks. Been doing this for the last 7 years and will be doing again in 11 days, touch wood have never had any problems.

Remember your high factor sun cream for little one, their skin is a lot more sensitive than ours. Have a fantastic holiday 8)

Rick, there's nothing stopping you from pouring the calpol into two smaller bottles, if the normal bottle is over 100ml. They can then be taken in your hand luggage in one of those plastic bags. I'd rip the label off as well to take with me if I was you.
