How can we bring Zam Zam back to the UK? Do you know any company that can do it cost-effectively?
You'll need an Umrah visa and airline dependent. Saudi won't let you without an Umrah visa, but Emirates have been flexible.
I have also heard it is easier from the airport near Madina if you bring back Zam Zam.
I had no trouble with the visa waiver last year. I just went to the counter at Jeddah airport, bought the official pack and then checked it in at the baggage counter. Then, took it to the separate area where you give it in. I flew with Saudi to Heathrow.
It is variable, as others have had a different experience if not on the Umrah visa.
Most airlines are relaxed with returning ZamZam and consider it an extra from your luggage. I would recommend not putting in your luggage as it can be detected by scanners and may also leak.
