EU to restrict liquids in hand luggage

[SPDAY]

The European Commission said it is to restrict the amount of
liquids allowed in air passengers' hand luggage, in a bid to boost
security

The measure was announced by EU transport commissioner Jacques
Barrot

'Following the incidents of this summer we have sought to
introduce a response proportional to the needs of security,' he
said

'We have decided to restrict the amount of liquid allowed in hand
luggage,' he added, while ruling out a total ban

Maximum container sizes will be introduced under the new EU rules,
allowing people to bring small shampoo and perfume bottles on
board. Duty free airport purchases will be carried in sealed bags,
Barrot said.

UK authorities announced last month that they had foiled an
alleged plot to blow up US-bound airliners using liquid explosives
smuggled aboard in hand luggage

During a meeting last week on emergency measures, aviation
security experts from the 25 EU member states agreed on the need
for a 'common response' to the new threat of liquid explosives

Как выяснилось, нельзя приносить _свои_ жидкости. После прохождения security в аэропорту, в duty-free покупай и неси на борт все что душе угодно.
