European airport security regulations for carry-on items

Overview

Travelers navigating European airports face varying security regulations regarding liquids and electronic devices. While many locations maintain a standard rule requiring liquid containers to be no larger than 100 milliliters and stored in a single one-liter transparent, resealable plastic bag, some exceptions exist. For instance, Zurich Airport has implemented expanded rules allowing containers of up to two liters. In Italy, specific conditions apply at airports such as Rome Fiumicino, Milan Linate, Milan Malpensa, Bologna, and Turin, though medical liquids and aerosols for special dietary needs are permitted in quantities necessary for the trip duration.

Regarding electronics, regulations mandate that lithium batteries, power banks, spare batteries, and electronic cigarettes must be kept in carry-on luggage or on the passenger’s person rather than in checked baggage due to overheating risks.
