Fly Through Security More Easily
Air travel has rules that restrict the amount of Liquids, Aerosols and Gels (LAGs) that passengers may take on board in their hand luggage on international flights, to protect against the threat of liquid explosives. The rules are in effect and passengers are expected to oblige.
What are LAGS?
LAGs stands for Liquids, Aerosols and Gels.
If you can POUR it, PUMP it, SQUEEZE it, SPREAD it, SMEAR it, SPRAY it or SPILL it, it is considered a LAG.
