Cool bag for breast milk whilst travelling
Hi all!
Looking for recommendations for a cooler bag to carry breastmilk whilst travelling.
I’ve purchased cheaper cooler bags previously and they look poor quality and not confident that they will keep milk frozen for the duration of travelling (8 hours- 1 hour to airport, 2 hours in airport, 4 hour flight and 30 min taxi journey)
Also absolutely any other tips greatly appreciated! (Travelling from London Gatwick)

https://amzn.eu/d/6NQUmc8 I’ve been using this cool bag which has kept breast milk cold and secure, we use it when we go out for the day. Not tested it beyond a day though!
Oh what a great idea! Just the ones you pick up in the m&s store? I’ll be taking it in milk bags too :) Xx
@Holly just the tiny ones in the store - like the lunch bag size and then popped the ice packs in. If you were worried mid journey then you could also take some leak free sandwich bags and ask for ice n the plane or at a Costa and pop that in. Worth knowing that you can’t fly with frozen milk in the UK too as I didn’t realise x
Thanks so much! This is fab. I found out only yday you can’t fly with frozen, that’s insane!

The ceres chill gets great recommendations and keeps cool for up to 20 hours - this would also be handy while out and about as it only needs a few ice cubes however all the milk is stored in one chamber. Personally I used a M&S mini cooler bag with 5 ice packs while travelling and had the milk stored in multiple bags - it kept cool for the 12 hours I was travelling. I found it easier to travel with the milk bagged instead of being in bottles.
