Manchester Airport is urging passengers travelling over the Christmas period to check security restrictions before travelling.

The airport’s reminder covers gifts such as perfume and alcohol which must be placed in hold baggage if more than 100mls - alcohol and perfume can be bought after security in quantities larger than 100ml. Manchester is also advising passengers that Christmas crackers and party poppers are banned by many aircraft operating out of Manchester.

For more information on whether Christmas crackers and party poppers are permitted by your airline check the airport’s publications for T1 and T3 and Terminal 2.
