• Some UK and European airports have upgraded to advanced CT scanners, allowing liquids, laptops and tablets to remain in carry-on bags during security checks.
• However, the 100ml liquid limit remains in effect, even at airports with the new scanners.
• The liquid rules, introduced in 2006 as a temporary measure, were supposed to be eased by June 2024, but implementation has been delayed and even reversed at some airports.

• Inconsistency in security procedures remains a global issue, with varying rules regarding liquids and electronics at different airports worldwide.
