Pay Attention to That 100 ml Limit When Packing Your Suitcases!

We are all tired of dealing with those small transparent bags and filling shampoos into tiny bottles while passing through airport security. Just in case you're thinking "Is this over now?" Then a new era begins in Europe. Thanks to the new generation C3/CT scanners, the 100 ml rule is now relaxed in some airports and up to two liters of liquid is allowed.

However, this news should not immediately get us excited and prompt us to pack all the shampoo bottles into our suitcases. Things are a little complicated.

Where, What Changed?

Technology is nice, but it is not yet available in every part of Europe. In some points such as Rome Fiumicino, Vienna, Dublin, Malta and Palma de Mallorca, we can now pass two liters of liquids through security without any problems. In fact, the problem of taking laptops and tablets out of the bag is eliminated.

However, the situation may vary not only from airport to airport, but even in different terminals within the same country. For example, while the system works well in Palma de Mallorca in Spain, things are still a little more limited in places like Málaga. So, as you can understand; The rules are still like a puzzle.

Be Prepared for Return Way Surprises

The biggest risk now is to be comfortable on the way out and hit a wall on the way back. You can easily pass through an airport with two liters of products; But the airport where you will return home may still apply the famous 100 ml limit. Then, those big bottles will go to waste at security, it would be a shame.

A Little Check Before Traveling

These browsers are expected to become widespread by the end of 2026, so our job will become easier over time. But until that day comes, before you close your suitcase, be sure to check the current rules of the airports you will fly to. Don't think "It's gone everywhere anyway", it's better to keep the tiny bottles with you for a while longer.

It looks like those famous 100ml bottles aren't retiring just yet; They just become a little more "selective".
