Can this travel in cabin or checked baggage?

Airline-dependent

Your airline's cabin-bag size and weight limits still apply on top of security rules.

Border

Can you bring this into the destination country?

Usually OK

Personal-use liquids are rarely a customs issue arriving into United Kingdom.

Three separate rule systems · Any one can stop your item

Before you fly home: check what you're bringing back

Some liquids are fine through airport security but restricted by customs, biosecurity, alcohol duty, medicine rules or destination law.

Medicine warning

Some prescription medicines, hormone gels, syrups and controlled drugs need documentation or prior approval before travel.
