Liquid restrictions changes

Hi!

I just saw a post from Finnair that the liquid restrictions in carry on luggage is changing on September 1:

Changes in EU regulations will affect liquid restrictions in carry-on baggage as of 1 September 2024

EU regulation change imposes new restrictions on the size of the liquid containers in carry-on baggage at all European airports as of 1 September 2024.


As of 1 September 2024, as per the new regulation published by the European Commission, the size of the liquid containers in carry-on baggage is restricted to a maximum of 100 ml packages at all European airports, including Helsinki Airport. You are still allowed to bring up to 2 liters of liquids if you start your journey from Helsinki Airport. The change does not affect transfer passengers at Helsinki Airport, liquids in checked-in baggage or Finavia’s network airports in Finland.

To make your travel smoother and prepare for the revised liquid restrictions you can read more about carry-on baggage on our flights here and changes in liquid restrictions at Finavia´s website here.

This messaging is confusing. The 100 ml restriction has been in place for many years already.

Is this a terribly indirect way of saying that there is no need to keep them in 1l plastic bag that is removed from the bag during security screening?
