all have to fit into a clear plastic sealable bag available at the airport.

phatbear knows - he is one of those people who unpacks peoples dirty undies at the airport and plays Generation Game/gets them to sit on the magic toilet iirc.

Each container (not contents) must not exceed 100ml. All containers must fit in a 8" x 8" ziplock plastic bag.

Have you seen how much 100ml is?! It's the same as a large tube of toothpaste! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

As long as each container is no more than 100ml and everything fits in the sealed bag, it's fine.

I would be surprised if you were allowed to take a razor in your hand luggage....just think of the onboard damage you could do with a mach3 :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

You can take razors, so long as they are safety razors (ie encased in plastic). You can't take bare razor blades.

You can buy razors airside. I was surprised when I saw them in Boots airside.

You can't take normal sized spray deodorant. We got stopped at security one year as my son had put one in his bag without telling me and the man had to take it off him. So embarrassing

New dft regulations say you can take knives up to 3 inches airside now so a mach 3 isnt going to be a problem

Sorry to butt in, but on a related what is the situation with bottled water. I become anxious when I don't have a bottle of water with me
(I have dehydration problem that needs to be kep in check). Do I need to decant into a 100ml bottle?
Also, what about lip balm - will the solid stuff be OK?
