UK Airports Criticize Government's Sudden Reintroduction of 100ml Liquid Limit

Airports express frustration over last-minute rule change, citing operational challenges and passenger confusion during peak travel season.

The UK government reinstated the 100ml liquid limit for hand luggage at six regional airports.
Airports had prepared for new scanners allowing up to two liters of liquids, but the rollout was delayed.
Airport Operators Association says the change has created uncertainty and operational difficulties.
Passengers are advised to arrive earlier to navigate increased security delays.
The Department for Transport states the reintroduction is temporary and affects only a small percentage of passengers.
