If flying, it is important not to declare your oils as paint. They are in fact, artists oil colors, which is a whole different thing to paint. If you look on the tube of most colors, they are described as Artists Oil Colors and are not hazardous. I know of people who have had their oils confiscated at the airport because they declared them as paint. In fact, I do not declare them at all, and if questioned, I would say I am carrying Artists Oil Colors, which are not paint. I also carry a material safety data sheet. All brands would have a safety data sheet available. I simply printed mine from the internet. I wrap my paints in bubble wrap along with my brushes and canvases/foamcore, place in a big plastic bag and carry it flat with my clothes in my suitcase.
