- Airports across the European Union are set to scrap the 100ml liquid restrictions for passengers.
- This change applies only to aviation hubs equipped with advanced computed tomography (CT) scanners, allowing liquids in containers of up to two litres.
- While some major airports like Berlin, Rome, Amsterdam, and Milan are participating, not all, including London Heathrow, currently have the necessary technology.
- The new ruling could cause confusion for passengers if their departure and return airports have different scanner capabilities, as the 100ml rule would still apply for the return journey from an unequipped airport.
- The introduction of these scanners also means passengers will no longer have to remove items like laptops and tablets from their cabin baggage, streamlining the security process.
