Information to passengers

All passengers, their hand and checked luggage have to undergo screening before entering into security restricted areas. Screenings are performed at check points, manually, with technical devices and/or by combining both methods. Primary objective of the security check is to detect and prevent:
  • Introduction of prohibited items into the restricted security area and later on into the aircraft, and
  • Potential act of unlawful interferences (i.e. airplane hijacking, sabotage or attack with an explosive device).
List of items that cannot be taken on board a flight may be found on the List of prohibited items. Contact your airline or travel agent if you have any questions about what you can take on board.

Individual security check is available for passengers with limited movement abilities, with prosthesis and pacemakers, upon their request.
Devices used during the security check cannot damage passengers’ electronic devices (laptops, cameras, IPod etc) or photographic films

Liquids

Due to safety reasons, transportation of liquids in hand luggage is subject to strict regulations and scrutiny.

Liquids include: gels, pastes, lotions, liquid/solid mixtures, toothpastes, hair gels, drinks, syrups, contents of pressurised containers (shaving foams, deodorants and similar articles).

Only the following liquids may be carried as hand luggage and they must be presented at security checkpoint:

  • Duty free in a sealed security bag. The item and the receipt must remain sealed inside the security bag provided at the time of purchase.
  • Liquids in containers of 100ml or less packed in a single, transparent, re-sealable 1-litre plastic bag.
  • Medicines and special dietary products e.g. baby food

All other liquids must be placed in your checked (hold) luggage.
