Travel Australia - by Craig Hill

New travel restrictions regarding liquids and aerosols

April 12th 2007 12:02
While rules regarding what you can take on the plane with you in terms of liquids and aerosols have been in place around the world for some time, here in Australia they are just coming into place, and it is worth knowing the situation, to save a little hassle when you are at the airport.

"Each container of liquids, aerosols or gels in your carry-on baggage must be 100 millilitres or less. All the containers must be sealed in a transparent, one-litre plastic bag. You are only allowed one plastic bag. Any transparent resealable bag of one litre capacity or less is allowed.

You may still carry on board prescription medicines. Baby products and non-prescription medicines that you need for the flight are also allowed. Proof of need may be required."

Duty Free is subject to the new laws, but of course this doesn't mean you cannot buy duty free alcohol, perfume etc. If you are confused about the process of duty free, I would check the below website, or ring the hotline on 1300 791 581.

Flying is getting a lot more difficult!
