Fluids in hand luggage

[kazdav]

Can you confirm for me, can you have as many products you like in your poly bag as long as none of them are more than 100ml each. Or is it 100ml in total.

That is my understanding of the rules. I can't vouch for it personally as I try not to carry any liquids on board with me at all. Anything essential like calpol or maybe a small anti bac hand cleaner I just by airside once we have cleared security.

As many as you like. The bag has to be closed so you are limited to as much as the bag can hold.

Each item can be up to a 100ml size. so as many as you can fit in the size of bag that they allow. Most airlines have this listed on the hand luggage section of the airlines website. works out to be a small/medium (depends on where you buy them) zip lock sandwhich bag.

I have taken roughly the following, shampoo and conditioner, shower gel, mascara, contact lens stuff and some of the other bits of make up etc all in the take away sizes and they had not problem with those as long as the bag closed.

Remember the container must only hold 100ml as well - ive seen quite a few people having to throw away perfume bottles which originally held more than 100ml but are half used. They usually try and argue that theres less than 100ml in there but it doesnt matter as the container says 200ml etc

I have just had a look and the guidelines for size of the bag is roughly 20x20 cm, as a maximum and it needs to be able to fit the containers into it "comfortably" and be able to close properly. Whatever you can fit into there is good to go.
