Hand Luggage - New Security Measures.
Passengers are requested to be patient while additional security measures are in place, allow extra time for their journey and be prepared for possible delays. On 6th November new security measures came into effect for all passengers departing from UK airports.

ONE item of hand baggage is allowed; dimensions: 56 centimetres long [approximately 22 inches], 45 centimetres high [approximately 17.5 inches], 25 centimetres deep [approximately 9.85 inches] including wheels, handles, side pocket.
All items of luggage which do not fit in the permitted cabin baggage size must be checked in to be placed in the aircraft hold.
Musical instruments which do not fit in the permitted cabin baggage size are allowed as a second item of cabin baggage, they will need to be screened and passengers should check with their airlines if special arrangements (e.g. purchasing an extra seat) for these large instruments will be required.
Laptops and other large electrical items (e.g. a large hairdryer) have to be removed from cabin baggage and screened separately. A laptop bag will be regarded as your one item that is allowed in the cabin.
Pushchairs, walking aids and wheelchairs are permitted but will be screened.
LiquidsSome liquids (e.g. gels, lotions, pastes, liquid cosmetics, foams and foodstuffs) are now allowed through airport security check points. There are the following restrictions on the quantity of liquids:

Each passenger may carry only one such bag of liquids. The bag must be presented for examination. Liquids that can not be placed inside the re-sealable bag must be packed into the hold luggage and checked in. Liquids of any amount can still be carried in luggage checked into the aircraft hold.Please note 'Liquids' include:

The first time I had to make a transfer in Heathrow airport in London, I was a little frightened because it is one of the most important airports in the world, but as soon as my plane landed in London, I realised that there was nothing to get worry about: the personal was very kind and everything was perfectly indicated so everything was allright.
ReplyDeleteThese rules affect all airports in the European Union. If you buy something in the shops after de security control, you can carry it, but the bag must be sealed. But if you do a transfer after and you have to pass the security control again, this liquids will be removed.
