The new rules are as follows:
1. Implementation of security screening for carrying liquids, gels or aerosols and items with similar consistency on board an aircraft as below:
a) All liquids, gels, aerosols and items with similar consistency should be carried in containers with a capacity not greater than 100ml / 100gm / 3.40z. Items carried in containers larger than 100ml will not be accepted, even if partially filled.
b) Containers should be placed in a transparent and re-sealable plastic bag of a maximum capacity not exceeding 1 litre. The containers must fit comfortably within the transparent plastic bag, which should be sealed.
c) The plastic bag should be presented for visual examination at the screening point. Only one transparent plastic bag per passenger is permitted.
d) Exemptions should be made for liquids, gels and aerosols used for medication, baby milk/foods and special dietary requirements. Passengers may be requested to verify the nature of such liquids, gels and aerosols
e) Exemptions are applied to flight crew in uniform and on duty during flights.
- Exemptions in respect of liquids, gels or aerosols and items with similar consistency purchased either at airport duty free shops located in sterile areas, or on board aircraft, on the condition that the liquid is packed in a sealed plastic bag that is both tamper-evident and displays satisfactory proof of purchase at the airport duty free shops or on board aircraft, on the day(s) of the journey for departing as well as transfer passenger.
- To facilitate screening and to avoid a cluttered x-ray image, such plastic bags containing the items should be presented apart from other cabin baggage, coats/jackets or laptops for separate x-ray screening.
- The new security measures are in accordance to International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) dated 30 March 2007 and recommended for implementation by all the ICAO contracting state.
