The new measures, which take effect from 12.00 am on 31 March 2007, mean that:
? Liquids, aerosols and gels taken on-board planes as hand luggage must be in containers no bigger than 100ml (milliliters). This includes drinks, creams, perfumes, sprays, gels, toothpaste, lipstick, lip balm and similar substances that you can pour, spray or smear;
? These containers must be sealed comfortably in a one litre transparent plastic re-sealable bag (for example 20cmX20cm or 15cmX25cm);
? Passengers will only be able to carry one of these transparent bags each;
? Duty-free items taken through screening are subject to the same rules as other liquids, aerosols and gels. At many Australian airports, passengers will be able to purchase and collect duty-free items after they have passed through screening for their international flight. Further restrictions will apply if travelling from Australia to the U.S.A. or Canada.
? No duty-free items will be permitted to be taken through an international transit screening point in Australia. Similar rules are in place at airports internationally
? Passengers may carry duty-free liquid, aerosol and gel purchases on board if they are delivered to the departure gate in a sealed bag with proof of purchase and collected after passengers have proceeded through security screening.
? Passengers may also purchase liquid, aerosol and gel duty-free items on-board an aircraft. However, if they are transiting through Australia, these items cannot be taken through the screening point.
