To protect you from the threat of liquid explosives, there are rules for taking liquids, aerosols and gels (LAGs) on flights in and out of Australia. Passengers are not permitted to carry individual LAG items in excess of 100mls through the security screening point. This includes duty free liquids, aerosols and gels such as alcohol, perfume or cosmetics, regardless of where they were purchased before the security screening point.
These items may need to be surrendered at the security screening point. The LAG rules also apply to passengers arriving on international flights transiting in Australia, and passengers travelling on a domestic leg of an international flight within Australia.
Although there are restrictions in place, there are some exemptions which apply for medicines/medical products and baby products. Visit the Australian Government’s TravelSecure website for further information about LAG restrictions and LAG exemptions.
