When the time comes for holidays or just vacations, many people choose to vacation abroad. And if you are going to make an air flight, you need to know what you can take in hand luggage on the plane, so that later there will be no misunderstanding with the administration and airport staff.
Starting to pack on the road, you need to first familiarize yourself with the baggage transportation rules that are developed by the particular airline whose services you are going to resort to. This way you save time and nerves.
You need to know that baggage on the plane can be transported for free and for free. However, there are a number of restrictions on the luggage that can be carried without payment. In particular, this applies to weight: the maximum allowable is 20 kg (for extra class passengers), 30 kg (for business class) and 40 kg if you fly in first class.
It is best to ask in advance about what you can take on a plane and with what weight, so that later there will be no inconvenience. It is worth distinguishing that hand luggage - these are things that a passenger takes on an airplane. Its weight is also strictly regulated: 5 kg if you are an extra-class passenger, and 10 kg if you belong to business-class passengers. The maximum allowable volume is 54 * 40 * 20 cm.
Now let's decide what you can take on an airplane out of things. So, first of all, it is allowed to transport no more than a liter of liquid, but this is subject to the condition that it will be in separate containers, the volume of which will not exceed 100 ml. Moreover, they should be packed only in a transparent bag.
As for food, baby food and medicine, they can be taken on a plane. They do not require specialized packaging. Sometimes a passenger may be required to explain why he took them to the cabin, and what is the need for it.
From what can be taken on a plane, they also call a woman’s handbag, an umbrella, a small camera, a laptop, as well as one element of outerwear (coat, jacket, cloak) and some book or periodical.
Note that one wheelchair or pram is free and does not depend on the amount of other checked baggage.
There are restrictions on what you can take on a plane. So, piercing and cutting objects (nail files and manicure scissors including) are prohibited. It is best to leave them in your luggage for the duration of the transport, so that you do not get new ones later. You cannot take any funds in the containers onto the plane, but you can check them in as luggage.
The list of things that you can take with you on an airplane does not include weapons at all (the only exception is the wearing and conditions of import and export of which are certified by authorized bodies), as well as poisons, toxins and explosive substances. The fact is that the list of items that cannot be taken in hand luggage can be adjusted by the country you are going to visit.
Also, many people think that you can take pets on the plane. This is allowed only if they are placed in a special cage-container, and their weight does not exceed 5 kg. Remember that you cannot take birds and any other animals into the cabin if there are more than two of them. If such transportation is necessary, they are transported in a special luggage compartment.
This applies to the general rules for transporting things that can be taken in the form of hand luggage. Remember that each airline and airport can put forward their requirements for a list of acceptable things, which you will need to familiarize yourself with in advance. It is best to visit the specialized sites of the company and clarify all the data on the eve of departure. The same goes for product packaging rules and other things.
Observing all the necessary rules, you can safely and without problems cross the air border, without spoiling the future vacation.
