As of a few weeks ago, Gatwick have quietly removed their 2 litre liquid limit.
The change hasn’t been updated on the digital signage in the security area, nor on the website, to not confuse customers but the change is in effect.
I’ve reached out to Gatwick’s Press Office for comment and will update the article with any response.
Update: Gatwick’s Press Office did respond.
“Passengers should continue to come prepared for security at London Gatwick as normal and not bring liquids in containers of more than 100ml.”
When I pushed back and said is there a different policy publicly and between security they responded:
“As below, guidance remains that passengers should continue to come prepared for security at London Gatwick as normal and not bring liquids in containers of more than 100ml.”
So the policy is in place for 2 litre liquid limits but as it’s not public they could change it at any time. Gatwick would be joining other UK airports dropping this rule.
That is all the information we are giving at this time.
