Are you allowed to take knitting needles in suitcase on a flight? Going to visit someone in Bavaria and they have asked me to take some for them so any advice anyone?
Thankyou :j

I can't see that it would be a problem.

You definitely can if they're checked in.
If they're in your hand luggage, no.
(although I do remember seeing somewhere that the bamboo one's are allowed, but it was a long time ago and I can't remember where I saw it)0 -

I have taken plastic ones in hand luggage several times. I think the main concern would be the metal ones.Gone ... or have I?0 -
You're not allowed sharp items in the cabin itself, but if they're put in the hold it's no problem. As far as I know this applies to all types of knitting needle.0
