London City Airport scraps 100ml liquids rule after introducing CT scanners
Sky News says Passengers travelling through London City Airport will no longer have to limit their liquids to 100ml in their hand luggage as high-tech CT scanners have been introduced at security.
The move, which will be implemented today, comes after the government set a June 2024 deadline for most UK airports to install the machines.
Teeside is also using new technology, meaning passengers there do not need to remove liquids, tablets, laptops and other electronic items from their hand luggage for security checks.
When passengers reach London City Airport’s security area, high-tech CT scanners will take high-resolution 3D images to check hand baggage and clothing for any dangerous or banned foods.
