Gatwick Airport Security: Hand Luggage

London Gatwick - August 2008:

Airport packing ‘everything but the kitchen sink’
– don’t struggle with heavy bags, Help-me-park.com is here to help!

When taking everything but ‘the kitchen sink’ on holiday it’s little wonder passengers, flying overseas, are finding baggage security rules difficult.

What’s more, many air passengers are finding such baggage security rulings complicated and confusing.

The biggest confusion, it seems, is the ruling on hand luggage. Earlier this year Gatwick Airport lifted the ban on ‘one-bag-per-passenger’, allowing individual airlines to set their own guidelines. So whilst a passenger may have been allowed to board with a handbag and a piece of hand luggage on one flight, another airline might only allow one item when they’re next travelling. Always check with the airline you are travelling with before travel.

As a result, main baggage can be bulkier and heavier than usual. This in itself causes problems. Especially for families travelling with small children and babies - something many passengers are experiencing now the summer holidays are in full swing.

Whilst inside the airport the problem isn’t so extreme as there are trolleys. However, struggling with small children, babies, push chairs and heavy bags from the car to the airport is tricky.

PROBLEM – struggling with heavy luggage whilst juggling children or
disabilities and trying to park the car:

• Baggage unloaded out of the car
• Baggage loaded into the courtesy coach.
• Baggage loaded back off the coach
• Find an elusive baggage trolley
• …and finally, into the airport
