5 Things You Should NEVER Carry In Your Hand Luggage On Flights

Are you a seasonal traveller or a frequent one? Well, the anxiety of going through a security check at the airport can be pretty terrifying. Therefore, to calm your nerves before you board a flight and have a relaxing travelling experience, we have compiled a list of FIVE things that you should never carry in your hand luggage on a flight. This post can be a checklist to ensure you don’t get into unwanted hassle at the airport:

1. Sharp Or Pointed Objects

Any sharp object in your hand luggage is a big NO. Razor blades, Box cutters, swords and sabres, crowbars, nail guns, staple guns, and martial arts and self-defence items are not allowed. It would be best if you avoided them in your hand luggage. However, you can carry your razor in the check-in luggage. Another set of objects that you should avoid in your hand luggage are balls of any kind, martial art items, or things that can be used to hit or throw at someone.

Don’t worry about liquor; a certain amount, as much as 5ltrs with alcoholic levels between 24%-70%, can be in your check-in luggage.
