From now on you can take into the airplane not only one bag but two.

Serious restrictions didn't influence all airports, only 22 of the, including the biggest Heathrow. They were allowed to increase the limit of the luggage after the installation of the modern scanners, which appreciably fasten the luggage check performing it without any lacks of safety. Those airports that didn't install the new equipment, will work according the old rules. Among them is the second most busy airport in London, Gatwick. There you can board the plane with only one item of hand luggage. Let us remind that the mode «one passenger - one hand baggage item» was brought in the British airports in the summer of the before last year. It has led to sharp growth of loss of the luggage. According to the interrogations, about ten percent of the passengers since then either lost load, or experienced its substitution. The total sum of so-called "luggage claims" in the past year has reached a record mark in 163 million dollars. The companies have already paid to the air passengers about two millions dollars of indemnifications.

As the Ministry of transport of the Great Britain emphasizes, the facilitations will not affect in any way the restriction of transportation of liquids in the plane. As before it is possible to take with you in total no more than a liter, and each portion should not exceed 100 milliliters.
