Hi all,

I have recently returned from Cuba...annoyingly not on BA metal...as one would imagine I bought my quota of cigars. Not being much of a smoker I was planning on taking them to my friends house when I visit him next week.

I will only be taking hand luggage. As this is non-EU tobacco does it have to go in checked luggage rather than in my hand luggage? I'm aware of course that any tobacco bought after security is permitted in my hand luggage (up to allowance).

Thanks for the help!
