London: Heathrow Airport has officially lifted its 100ml liquid limit for hand luggage, enabling passengers to carry containers up to two litres during security checks. This update follows the implementation of cutting-edge CT scanners across all terminals, as reported.
With the installation of these advanced scanners, travelers are no longer required to remove liquids or electronic devices from their bags, eliminating the need for clear plastic bags. Heathrow now stands as the largest airport globally to utilize this state-of-the-art screening technology fully.
This new regulation applies solely to departing flights from Heathrow, and travelers should verify security protocols at their return airports, as many may still adhere to previous restrictions.
Heathrow's CEO, Thomas Woldbye, stated that the hefty £1 billion investment is designed to expedite security checks and streamline the travel experience, allowing for quicker preparations at security.
Other UK airports, such as Gatwick, Edinburgh, and Birmingham, have also raised their liquid limits, while some await government validation.
Similarly, Dubai International Airport (DXB) rolled out comparable enhancements last year with advanced scanners aimed at decreasing wait times and enriching the passenger experience.
