All the UK airports with new hand luggage liquid rules

5 comments

1. If your connecting airport doesn’t have the same scanners you will still have to throw away all your liquids. Talking from experience.

2. UK airports with new CT scanners installed by June 2024
   *London City
   *London Southend
   *Teesside
   *Newcastle
   *Birmingham – 100ml rule applies
   *Aberdeen
   *Inverness
   *Stornoway
   *Bristol – from 14 June 2024, with a 330ml limit on liquids

3. I took 2 100ml travel size Lynx deodorant through security in a clear bag as instructed. My bag got rejected and had to be manually checked. They tested of the Lynx to make sure what was in it was only deodorant. They didnt test the other

   Seemed all abit pointless

   Fact some airports are ready for this and not others seems to just make it more complicated and confusing

4. Obviously not Manchester.

   When you walk from Terminal 2 to Terminal 3 (rather than taking the “Skywalk” which is being upgraded though no one is ever working on it, the travelators don’t work and the AC is off so it is 120c in a glass tube) you walk through a passage through an office building, the main HQ of Manchester Airport Group.

   Someone I know may have spat on the window next to the main entrance a few times.

5. I was sleepy + not paying attention going through security at Birmingham the other day with an unopened bottle of lucozade sport in my bag.

   It was pulled aside, I begged the agent to let me drink some before he threw it away, but he said “I’m just testing it” and put it in some machine before he gave it back to me. What’s the testing machine??? How do they know!!
