With the increasing awareness of aviation safety, the regulations for carrying liquids when flying are becoming more and more stringent. In order to ensure the safety of passengers, airlines and airports in various countries have imposed corresponding restrictions on the carriage of liquids. This article will analyze the regulations on the carriage of liquids in aircraft to help you understand the restrictions and precautions for carrying liquids.
1. Overview of the regulations on the carriage of liquids on aircraft.
In accordance with the regulations of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the following restrictions apply to liquids carried by passengers:
1.The total amount of liquid does not exceed 100ml;
2.No more than 100ml of liquid in a single bottle;
3.The liquid must be packed in a transparent re-closed bag, and the size of the bag must not exceed 20cm 20cm;
4.Liquids are subject to airline and airport regulations.
2. Restrictions on the total amount of liquids and the amount of liquids in a single bottle.
In practice, it is often confusing to have a total liquid volume of no more than 100ml and a single bottle of liquid not exceeding 100ml. In fact, these two restrictions are independent of each other, that is, the maximum amount of liquid carried by passengers is 100ml, and the capacity of each bottle cannot exceed 100ml. This means that even if the total amount of liquid does not exceed 100ml, if the volume of a single bottle exceeds 100ml, it is still not compliant.
For example, a passenger carrying two bottles of 50ml of liquid, although the total amount is 100ml, each bottle does not exceed 100ml, so it is compliant. Conversely, if a passenger is carrying a 200ml bottle of liquid, even if the total amount of liquid is only 200ml, it does not meet the regulations because the single bottle exceeds the 100ml limit.
3. Precautions for carrying liquids.
1.Transparent re-closing bag: When carrying liquids, use a clear re-closing bag so that security personnel can clearly see the contents of the bag.
2.Check the type of liquid: Restrictions on liquids vary from airline to airport and may be prohibited from carrying alcohol, corrosive liquids, etc. Therefore, it is important to check the rules before bringing liquids.
3.Carry-on: Liquids must be carried on board and cannot be checked in.
4.Purchase of duty-free liquids: Liquids purchased at duty-free shops at airports can generally be brought on board. However, please be careful to keep proof of purchase so that you can present it at the security check.
5.Infant liquids: Liquids (e.g. milk powder, water, etc.) required by infants can be carried in moderation, but you need to check with the airline in advance for specific regulations.
Summary. There are strict restrictions on the carry-on of liquids when flying. The total amount of liquid should not exceed 100ml, and each bottle should not exceed 100ml. In addition, it is important to use transparent re-sealing bags and to be aware of the specific regulations of the airline and the airport. Hopefully, this article will help you better understand the regulations for carrying liquids in aircraft and ensure a smooth journey.
