Security Enhancement: Carry-on Baggage Prohibited Items

In keeping with the restrictions imposed by the EU and the US regarding liquids as carry-on baggage items, all passengers on LAN flights and online or offline connections to/from Australia, New Zealand and Brazil will be required to comply with the following restrictions as of April 1, 2007:

  • Passengers will be permitted to bring liquids, gels and aerosols as carry-on baggage provided that the items are packaged in containers with a capacity of 100 ml or less each, and that containers fit comfortably in one clear, closed and resealable plastic bag (Ziploc-type) with a capacity of no more than 1 liter. One bag per passenger will be permitted.
  • In order to minimize potential delays at the screening point, passengers must remove from their carry-on bag, the closed, resealable transparent plastic bags containing all liquids, gels, and aerosols and present them for security screening separately from the rest of the baggage.
  • The following items will be permitted in reasonable amounts according to the length of passenger itinerary:
    - Baby formula/ milk (including breast milk), baby food, milk and juice in small containers if a child aged two years and under is traveling. These items must be kept in the responsible adult's carry-on baggage.
    - Medicines (liquids, gel and/or aerosol).
  • Passengers will be subject to random physical inspections.

Please note that these restrictions may be applicable to Duty Free items if purchased at connection points along the route.
