Important airport rules if you have a half-term break planned
As we approach the February half-term and Easter break, many UK families are gearing up for a well-deserved holiday. If you're among those jetting off abroad, it's crucial to be aware of the stringent hand luggage rules enforced by airlines, including major carriers like easyJet, Ryanair, TUI, and Jet2.
Any liquids over this limit must be packed in the hold luggage. Travellers carrying liquids up to 100ml in their carry-on must place these items in a transparent, resealable plastic bag that holds no more than a litre and measures approximately 20cm x 20cm, reports the Express.Travellers are reminded that only liquid containers larger than 100ml can be taken through security if they're for essential medical purposes, special dietary requirements, or contain baby food or milk.
Sports equipment is another category with restrictions. Items like baseball, softball and cricket bats, golf clubs, darts, walking/hiking poles, catapults, firearms , harpoons or spear guns, crossbows, or martial arts equipment cannot be taken on board flights as carry-on.Travellers are reminded that several work tools are prohibited in hand luggage.
Ammunition is also a no-go for hand luggage. Guns or firearms, including air rifles and starting pistols, are banned from carry-on bags.
