Cabin baggage liquid rules

Prepare for security

Heathrow has completed upgrading its security equipment. This will transform passenger experience, making travelling simpler, smarter and more accessible.

Passengers travelling through all terminals at Heathrow should leave large electrical items and liquids, in individual containers up to 2 litres, in their cabin baggage when going through security. 

Please note that while new scanning and detection equipment is being installed at other airports, passengers should be aware that this new technology may not be available at airports both within or outside the UK. 

 

Prepare for security as normal
