| Cabin baggage policy |
Cabin Baggage Standards by British Airports Authority (BAA) at London Heathrow British Airports Authority (BAA) has implemented IATA standards for cabin baggage size effective from 1st August, 2006 on all flights departing from all terminals of London Heathrow. The decision of implementation is taken in light of security reasons and flight delays caused due to long passenger queues at the Central Security Search (& Flight Connections Centre) at London Heathrow Airport as a result of passengers carrying hand baggage in sizes too big for the X-Ray machine. The IATA standard dimension of permitted cabin hand baggage is 22 inches (56 cms) in length; 18 inches (45 cms) in width and 10 inches (25 cms) in depth. Passengers carrying hand baggage exceeding these dimensions, will not be permitted to pass through Central Security Search. Passengers will have to return to the airline’s check-in counters to check in the hand baggage or repack them into smaller hand bags. No exemptions will be given. Each passenger is restricted to carrying only one item (in addition to the re-sealable liquids bag) through the airport search point. Musical instruments will, as an exception , be allowed as a second item of cabin baggage, but will need to be screened and passengers should check with their airlines if special arrangements (e.g. purchasing an extra seat) for these large instruments will be required. For passengers checking in from all UK domestic flights onwards to any international flights, baggage gauges (with the stipulated size) have been placed at strategic locations to measure the size of cabin baggage. Passengers will not be permitted to carry the cabin baggage which does not fit the gauge size.
The cabin baggage policy will apply to:
- All terminals
- All airlines
- Central Areas only
The policy will not be applied in Flight Connections Centre, Terminal Transfer Search Areas, Staff Search or Control Posts.
Exceptions to the limitations of the hand baggage are:
- Human Remains
- Baby buggies, strollers, car seats
- Wheelchairs
- Religious articles
- Wedding dresses and suit carriers
- Medical equipment
- Musical instruments
- Artwork
- Pictures
- Hat boxes
