Major restriction to be re-introduced at Ireland West Airport Knock

From September 1st, 2024, changes to EU regulation will see the re-introduction of temporary liquid restrictions at airports in the EU, including Ireland West Airport Knock.

Ireland West Airport stated, "In compliance with the new European Commission directive for EU airports, from the 1st of September, passengers will not be permitted to carry liquids, aerosols and gels (LAGs) in containers greater than 100ml in their cabin baggage through security at the airport. All liquid, aerosol and gels (LAGs) must be stored in containers of 100ml or less and stored in clear transparent bags and taken out of your cabin baggage before going through security. There will be no limit on the number of plastic bags used per passenger.

"Exceptions remain in place for essential items over 100ml such as baby products, special dietary needs and medications, which also must be placed in a clear transparent bag, separate to the liquids, aerosols and gels (LAGs).

The airport added, "However, these new guidelines do not affect electronics items, such as laptops and phones which can remain in your cabin baggage when going through security at Ireland West Airport."
