• Liquids in portions of less than 100 ml collected in a resealable 1 litre bag
• Baby food for the journey and necessities for babies and young children
• Small electronic devices such as laptops, tablets, earphones etc.

Check-in luggage includes all bags that are to be stored in the hold of the plane during your flight so you don’t have to carry them with you on board. The airlines set the rules for what and how much check-in luggage you may bring. We therefore recommend that you always check the regulations of the airline you’re flying with before your journey.
