The current regulations around Airline Cabin Baggage have been in place since 6th November 2006, but we are still seeing many questions over just what liquids can be brought into the cabin as hand luggage. The rules here are very precise, and cover drinks, medicines, make-up, toiletries, and even baby milk. The regulations are summarised here for simplicity, to help you avoid difficulties or delays at Airport Security.
What is the Definition of a Liquid?
In terms of Airport Security Rules, a liquid includes all of the following:
- All drinks, including water, soup, syrups
- Creams, lotions, oils, perfumes, mascara etc
- Sprays and pressurized containers including shaving foam and spray deodorants
- Pastes, including toothpastes
- Gels, including hair and shower gel
- Any other solutions and items of similar consistency
How Much Can I Take?
Obviously you can take as much as you like in the cargo hold, but in your hand luggage you are limited to containers holding no more than 100ml (note that a 200ml container half full is not permitted). All containers of liquid must be placed into a single, see-through and re-sealable plastic bag.
Travellers are encouraged not to take items in hand luggage which are capable of holding liquids (for example, bottles, flasks, tubes, cans, plastic containers, etc). This should help avoid unnecessary delays.
So What’s This About a Plastic Bag?
The plastic bag allows the liquids being carried by a passenger to be easily checked by airport security. The rules which must be followed are:
- The bag must be the transparent, re-sealable type
- The capacity of the bag must be no more than 1 litre (approximately 20cm by 20cm)
- The contents must sit comfortably in the bag and the bag must be sealed
- The re-sealable bag of liquids should be prepared before arriving at the airport
- Each passenger may carry only one such bag of liquids
- The one item of cabin baggage which can be taken through the airport search point is in addition to the bag of liquids
What About Essential Medicines?
Prescription medicines in liquid form which are essential for the journey (such as a diabetic kit) can be taken in hand luggage, but be prepared to prove their authenticity.
What About Baby Milk and Baby Food?
Baby milk and liquid baby food may be taken in hand luggage, and are not subject to the 100 ml limit, but the contents of each bottle or jar must be tasted by an accompanying passenger.
What About Duty Free / Departure Lounge Purchases?
You may take as hand luggage any Duty Free items you purchase in the shops in the departure lounge, or ‘airside’. These will be given to you in a special sealed bag which should not be opened until you reach your final destination, and you should keep your proof of purchase.
Note that there are additional considerations for duty free purchases for your return flight if you will be
changing flight at an EU airport.Summary
Limited liquids are now permitted as hand luggage, but if you want to avoid delays and difficulties at the airport then you should ensure you understand the above rules and prepare your bag of liquids before you get to the airport.

 | 421 Scale RC Aircraft Twin-Engine 46 - 71" Nitro/Electric Powered Remote Control Airplane ARF $499.95 421 Twin Engine Fuel/Electric-Powered Radio Controlled RC Plane ARF Wing Span: 71in / 1800mm Wing Area: 763 sq.in / 49.5 sq.dm Flying Weight: 11.0 lbs /5000g Fuselage Length: 62.6in / 1590mm Engine Required: 2c :0.40-0.46 x2 Radio Required: 6 channels ; 10-11 servos What the Pro says (More reviews here) The quality and engineering is excellent. It goes together VERY fast, far and away the fastest twin to build I have ever done. Everything fits perfectly, and the level of prefabrication is very high. The instructions are English and decent. It comes with fixed gear, and it's set up for retracts, too. I am waiting on a set of Robart air retracts to complete my plane. Mechanical retracts could be done, with a little engineering on your part.I am using two each of Exceed Monster Power 46 outrunners, Volcano 80A Escs, and Fusion Power 3200 5s lipos. The servos are all T-Pro SG5010 standard servos. I have used a bunch of them before with no issues, they are quite a bargain. Normally, on a plane this size, which will end up at least 10 pounds, I'd use something stronger on the elevators, but this plane is set up with two elevator servos, so standard servos are just fine. I will be using a seperate UBEC on one of the batteries to power the radio. Actually, maybe two of them. On previous large twins like the B25, P82, and Mosquito, I have used 5000mah packs, but long flights of 10 minutes or so have left me landing with over half the battery still left, so this time, I went with 3200, should be plenty. The nacelles are each one large fiberglass piece. This makes access to the interior very easy. If you wanted to, it would be easy enough to cut off the cowl portions to make them seperate. What engines will fit? It is set up for two 40s, I think four strokes should go in without any real problem, too. With my electrics, I made up my own plywood box motor mounts, but nice nylon mounts and good quality fuel tanks and tubing are all included in the kit, if you want to go glow. Did I mention how nice the glasswork and paint are? Along with all the woodwork and covering? Nice quality, and LIGHT. Oh...and you can't tell from the pictures, but it includes split flaps, too. I swapped out a few pieces of hardware along the way...what is included is good quality, but I don't like using EZ connectors on flight controls, so I soldered threaded couplers onto my elevator and rudder pushrods and added clevises instead. The rest of the hardware all got used. There is a nice set of decals(stickers) included. Not sure what of them I will use, I want to make mine a little different from the box top. Anyway...so far...delighted! Many pleasant surprises with this model. More from the Pro NitroModels keeps growing and lear ning, it really |
