Changes to Cabin Baggage Security Requirements

Please note that due to evolving safety and regulatory requirements for cabin baggage, certain items previously permitted may no longer be allowed into the airport security restricted area or onboard an aircraft. Airport security staff will not let anything through a security checkpoint that they consider dangerous or for which they are unable to resolve potential concerns - even if it has previously been allowed in hand luggage.

Arrangements may vary between airports and will include security officer assessments on the day. Passengers should check before travelling for advance advice given by airports from, and through, which you may travel.

Temporary Reintroduction of 100ml Liquid Rules

The UK Government’s Department for Transport instructed that from midnight on Saturday 8 June, 100ml restrictions on liquids would be temporarily reintroduced for passengers travelling from airports where Next Generation Security Checkpoint (NGSC) scanners are in full operation. This will be relevant to passengers travelling through Aberdeen International Airport. Passengers are requested to ensure that all liquids carried in cabin baggage do not exceed 100ml.
