The "3-1-1 rule" on United Airlines, and in fact, for all airlines flying within the United States, is a guideline for carrying liquids, aerosols, and gels in your carry-on luggage. It refers to: 3 - each container must be 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less; 1 - all containers must fit into a single, quart-sized, clear, resealable plastic bag; 1 - only one such bag is allowed per passenger.
Essentially, this rule ensures that any potentially hazardous liquids are easily identifiable and limited in quantity when going through airport security.

Essentially, this rule ensures that any potentially hazardous liquids are easily identifiable and limited in quantity when going through airport security.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less: Each liquid, aerosol, gel, cream, or paste container must be 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less.
- One quart-sized bag: All these containers must fit into a single, clear, resealable plastic bag that is no larger than one quart (approximately 0.95 liters) in size.
- One bag per passenger: Each passenger is allowed to bring one such bag through security.
- Medically necessary liquids: Items like baby formula, breast milk, and medications (even if larger than 3.4 ounces) may be allowed in larger quantities, but they need to be screened separately by TSA.
- Exceptions: The 3-1-1 rule does not apply to items in checked baggage.
