A new one on me and something I've never seen in writing anywhere on the BA website. I travel with plenty of DEET products on my travels and never been issue for BA, AA or QR. DEET has only been an issue for the mosquitoes and so I returned from a fortnight in Sri Lanka with not one bite! With my luck the DEET is probably killing me off slowly but at least I am not scratching mosquito bites etc.
