The UK airports allowing up to 2L of liquids onboard…
✈️Heathrow
✈️Gatwick
✈️Birmingham
✈️Bristol
✈️Belfast Intl
✈️Edinburgh

Absolute game changer for short haul flights - no longer necessary for the last minute Boots dash, buying suncream & toiletries at the airport…

Unfortunately you still have to empty your waterbottles as no metals allowed💦

Make sure you check the rules for your return flight location (or just finish the suncream before you fly😝)
