Requirements for hand luggage are determinedairline and airport, so be sure to check them for your case before the flight. But there are common rules and regulations. 1. The size of hand luggage. It is determined by the size of the luggage shelves in the plane. Check the airline's website for the allowable length, width and height of the bag. 2. Weight and number of seats. Usually it is not more than 5 kilograms and one seat (that is, one bag), but the maximum weight also depends on the carrier company and on the ticket class. In the first and business class, as a rule, two places for hand luggage and a larger permissible weight are provided. For control at the airport scales are installed and special form-boxes to check the size of the bag. Transportation of liquids. All liquids should be in bottles or jars with a volume of not more than 100 ml each. In this case, the total volume should not exceed 1 liter. The jars must be packed in a transparent bag. In most airports, such packages are issued. Keep in mind that creams, gels, toothpaste, decorative cosmetics (lipstick, mascara), oils are also included in the concept of "liquid." The stores sell convenient sets of 100 ml containers, especially for trips. The exception is made for baby food and medicines (it is better to take a certificate from a doctor about the need for this medicine) .4. Sharp and piercing-cutting objects. Knives, manicure accessories can not be carried in the cabin of the aircraft. 5. Hairspray and nail polish remover fall under the definition of "highly flammable and toxic substances" and are not permitted to be carried in hand luggage. Products. Some countries forbid exporting certain products, for example, meat or dairy products. Also note that yogurts, caviar and cheese fall under the definition of "liquid", and they are subject to the same restrictions, that is, not more than 100 ml. It can be very annoying when at the airport French or Swiss cheese is taken, intended as a gift to friends. 7. Purchases in duty free. They are not subject to the restrictions applicable to hand luggage, if the purchases are packed in a special closed package. Check it is better not to throw out before arrival. But, if you have a flight with docking, then during the transfer all that is bought in duty-free, automatically becomes a hand luggage. 8. In addition to one item, hand baggage is allowed to be carried: a handbag, a men's briefcase, a laptop in a special bag, one outer garment, one sealed bag with duty-free goods. Common sense suggests that the transportation of weapons and drugs is still prohibited. The strictness of the inspection of hand luggage depends on the airport and on the case. But, nevertheless, it is better not to risk and follow the established rules.
