While most Brits now know not to bring items like legs of ham and blocks of cheese from the UK, some holidaymakers may not be aware of the rules surrounding airport meal deals. Sandwiches - and other items - from airport meal deals that contain meat or dairy products aren't allowed to be brought into the EU from the UK. Travel expert, Maryanne Sparkes from European Waterways , said: "If you travel to the EU from a non-EU country, you are not allowed to bring any meat or dairy products with you - this includes those you would find in a meal deal sandwich.
" Brit holidaymakers flying from the UK into the EU may have to undergo official controls by airport officials . Any passengers found carrying any undeclared meat or dairy products will have those items confiscated and destroyed. Brits may also be fined or face criminal prosecution, if they're found with meat and dairy products.
