    What sort of razor blade?

    From Gov.uk:
    Fixed cartridge razor blades (disposable razors) can be carried in both hand and hold luggage.

    Not sure what codes you are looking for.

    Loose razor blades are not allowed, but usually a disposable razor would be permitted. I would suggest you contact them for their own T&C.

    I think, having read the title again, he wants an Easyjet code?

    I recently took some disposal razor blades with me in my hand luggage with no problem. They were brand new and unopened. Didn't have any problems flying back with them either.

    Anything where the blades are fixed into a cartridge is fine (so the fully disposable ones, the cartridges for a Gillette Mac3 or Fusion etc). Taken my Fusion with spare cartridges in its normal sink stand many times in hand luggage with no problems. Electric ones are obv fine too.

    It is the old fashioned safety razors or cut throat blades which are not allowed however I've seen some be allowed to take them as long as the blade was under 6cm (similarly with pen knives) but personally wouldnt risk it
