Passengers using Humberside Airport will benefit from the lifting of hand baggage restrictions at the hub.
With immediate effect, the blanket rule which prevented passengers from taking more than one item of hand luggage onto a flight from the airport has been lifted, following approval by the Department for Transport of new security arrangements.
While welcoming the change, the airport’s managing director Rob Goldsmith advised passengers to check with their airline before travelling.
“We are delighted to receive approval from the Department for Transport for the new security rules,” he said.
“However, as some airlines may still retain the one-bag rule, we strongly suggest you check with your airline on the cabin baggage arrangements for your particular journey.”
Passengers were also reminded that restrictions on carrying liquids in hand baggage remained in force.
Humberside Airport currently offers flights to a number of destinations, including Alicante, Innsbruck, Malta and Tenerife.
