Flybe announce new hand baggage rules
05.01.08
Regional budget airline Flybe has announced that, following the UK Government’s decision to relax hand-baggage rules at some UK airports from Monday (January 7), it will revert to the policy that it had in place before the restrictions were applied.
The rules mean that Flybe economy passengers will be allowed to carry one piece of hand baggage weighing a maximum of 10kg, while economy-plus passengers can carry the same plus a laptop at approved airports. All hand baggage must comply with Flybe’s dimension restrictions (see the airline's website for details).
A spokesman for the airline said: 'Passengers should be aware when packing that the departure airport on their outward journey might have different restrictions to the departure airport on their return.’ He added that restrictions on liquids still apply, with quantities not exceeding 100ml per container, which can be carried in a clear plastic bag measuring no more than 20x20cm.
Each UK airport is being individually approved by the Government, and the list of approved airports will be detailed on http://www.DfT.gov.uk/transportforyou/airtravel/airportsecurity/cabinbaggage.
