Hand Baggage Restrictions
When travelling with a baby you’re allowed to take enough baby food, baby milk and sterilised water for the journey. In some cases this will be over 100ml. You can carry breast milk in hand luggage even if you’re not travelling with a baby. You cannot carry frozen breast milk in hand luggage.
More information on baby food and milk in your hand luggage can be found here.
Passengers must ensure any Liquids, Aerosols and Gels within hand luggage, are in individual containers up to 100ml.
Liquids, Aerosols and Gels greater than 100ml are not permitted. All Liquids, Aerosols and Gels will be subject to an automated screening process.
We would recommend for a more seamless journey, that passengers continue to pack as many liquids as possible in their hold baggage, and only carry in their hand baggage what is required for the flight.
Liquids under 100ml no longer need to be in plastic nag but can be left in your hand luggage
More information on liquids can be found here.
Passengers on some routes into and out of the UK may now also be required to show that electronic devices in their hand luggage are powered up or face not being allowed to take the device onto the aircraft, passengers are therefore advised to make sure electronic devices being carried in their hand luggage are charged before they travel.
Laptops, tablets or electronic devices can now be left in your hand luggage. They do not need to be removed
