    Yes, you can take phone chargers and similar goods.
    Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks
    On a rotating plate, with spikes like Flash Gordon
    And you're Peter Duncan; I gave you fair warning

    No restriction at all.

    Which is crazy - you could easily use one to strangle someone! :eek:
  • Yep, I only take hand luggage on trips, and my phone charger, camera charger, hair straighteners, hairdryer, travel kettle, DD's nintendo DS charger, travel plugs etc etc etc all go in my hand luggage.

    Sounds like a collection of really dangerous items!

    Yet you aren't allowed on board with a bottle of Tesco suntan lotion...

    I know, they should ban all people with hands too, for the same reason! :)

    I would go further. Why stop at the hands. Only "arm-less" people should be allowed to fly.

    Sorry. :o
  • Hey you can take your charger in your hand luggage. I am telling you I often use my hand luggage for my Car charger, Mobile charger and many mobile accessories with me. I don’t face any kind of problem so far.
