What are the liquids regulations for British Airways?


Category: Liquids

After booking your flight with British Airways, you may need to pack you luggage for your travel.
Having a better grasp of the baggage allowances can help you avoid the hassles at the airport security checkpoint. When it comes to the liquids regulations, you need to pay special attention to figure out the permitted items you can take with you. Or your vacation may be spoiled.

Flights departing from the EU

If you're traveling from any EU member countries on British Airways, adhere to the common restrictions on liquids as follows:

- The liquids' largest volume is 100ml, which must be placed in individual containers.

- You need to store all the containers with liquids in a clean, plastic, zip-top or re-sealable bag.

- The maximum dimensions for the zip-top bag is 20cm x 20cm/8ins x 8ins.

- The bag must be within one litre capacity.

- You need to fit all your containers comfortably in the bag.

- Your bag is required to be completely closed.

- At the airport security checkpoints, you need to remove the bag from your hand baggage for separate x-ray screening.

If your trip is wholly in EU, you're allowed to purchase a certain amount of duty-free liquids at the airport or on board. They can be either packed in your hand baggage or checked baggage.

Flights departing from USA and Canada

If you're leaving from USA or Canada, the liquids regulations are almost the same as that of EU flights. The only difference is the total volume in your individual containers can not exceed 90ml. If you prefer to buy some duty-free goods containing liquids, you can only purchase after the security screening point. Pack the purchased duty-free liquids in your checked baggage if possible.
