Apparently this is new, we flew out on 7th May and I got clarification from Glasgow airport beforehand that we could take it in hand luggage. At security they didn’t even batter an eyelid at it but my kindle got scanned and swabbed 3x 🤷🏼♀️x
@Emma typical lol! Yeah he said it had been introduced last week. When I challenged why the people in the other queue got theirs he just said well they shouldn’t have. We just had the hassle of going back down and checking in one of our hand luggage items with them in, but I would totally believe that this wouldn’t be an option for everyone. Not everyone wants to give airlines another £40 for a bag 😅 xx
Did they say why at all? Because the only thing it has on it is a thermometer… what could I possibly do with it apart from feed my baby?! 😂😂
This happened to me today flew from Glasgow to Luton, and they took it off me
I flew from Edinburgh 27th April this year & was fine… I flew from Glasgow 30th May this year and was fine with it, never got flagged
I flew from Edinburgh last Monday and returned yesterday both times with my rapid cool and had no issues whatsoever x
I flew from Glasgow to Luton on 20th May and they took off me. We couldn’t put it in the checked in luggage cos it was so busy! They said because there’s liquid in the rapidcool and can’t test it!
@Krupha there’s a liquid inside that they cannot test x
@Selina did you get it back at all? They said the rules had just recently changed but if they took it then that isn’t the case. Honestly it just makes me so angry that it isn’t advertised anywhere on their website. Also the fact that someone in the normal security queue got theirs through x
@Chelsea he said the rules had just recently changed at the beginning of June. My argument was that clearly not everyone knows these new “rules” as a family in another queue got theirs. And his colleague was going to give us our second one until he came back and seen her!! Seems to just be your luck who you get xx
@Megan I suppose, I’ve been over 30 flights either my 2 year old, from when he was 15 days old thankfully I’ve never had the problem.
Following as travelling soon and would like to know too! X
