Liquids carried in hand luggage – New E.U. security measures
As of 06/11/2006, new security measures will be in effect at all airports in the European Union (European Commission Regulation 1546/06) regarding liquids carried in hand luggage.According to the new European Regulation, such items (e.g. water, alcohol and beverages, gel, cream, glue, lotion, perfume, shampoo, mascara, lip gloss, hair spray, toothpaste, shaving foam, aerosols, contact lens solution, honey, marmalade, soup, olive oil, any other item of similar consistency) have been added to the list of prohibited articles that you may not carry on board, unless conditions are met..
The new regulation is applied in addition to the existing rules for items that are not allowed to be carried on board an aircraft and affects only the liquid items in your hand luggage and not the checked-in baggage.
Here below you will find useful information and guidelines for your better and faster service at all airports to which the new rules apply.
Items that can be carried in your hand luggage: Liquid items, in individual containers with a capacity no greater than 100 ml. They have to be contained in one transparent plastic re-sealable bag of a maximum capacity not exceeding 1 litre. This plastic re-sealable bag is limited to one per passenger and must be sealed and delivered to the Security Screening separately for examination.
Liquids required for medical or dietary purposes and baby foods which are to be used during the trip. You may be asked for proof that they are needed.
Products that are sold in shops beyond the Security Screening points (Duty Free Shops). These products should be placed in a special sealed bag. This special sealed bag, which should be provided by the shop, must not be opened before you are screened – otherwise the contents may be confiscated at the checkpoint. If you transfer at an EU airport and in Norway, Iceland and Switzerland do not open the bag before screening at your airport of transfer, or at the last one if you transfer more than once. All these liquids are additional to the quantities in the re-sealable plastic bag mentioned above. Security screening staff is obliged to ask you to dispose of any liquid products that do not comply with the conditions of the new European Regulation. Such items will be sent for recycling as useless.
