Frequently asked questions new rules for hand luggage at alle EU airports

New rules on what is permitted in hand luggage will take effect on 6 November 2006. Liquids, gels and aerosols are only allowed in hand luggage in small quantities (no more than 100 ml per item), and if correctly packaged. These rules will apply to all passengers departing from or changing planes at EU airports. The new rules cover liquids, such as water and other beverages, gels, pastes, lotions and the contents of aerosol cans. Toiletries, such as toothpaste, shaving cream, hair gel, lip gloss and creams, also fall under the rules.
