The anticipation was palpable when the Government insisted that airports install cutting-edge scanners capable of accommodating liquids up to two litres in cabin baggage by June 1, raising the prospect of once again breezing through with full-sized bottles in hand luggage .

But major airports like Heathrow , Gatwick , and Manchester hit a wall with delays due to logistical challenges, missing the much-anticipated deadline. Amidst chaotic queues and widespread befuddlement, the Department for Transport (DfT) decreed that starting June 9, the longstanding restriction on liquids, gels, and pastes exceeding 100ml at security checks would be reinstated. For holidayers this year, the grim reality is that those arriving at airports with large toiletries or cosmetic items risk having them confiscated at security, leaving beloved items to a dismal fate in airport departure bins.
