At least they allow laptops on board. Well, I don't see you flying a UK<->US route anytime soon
Sorry guys, not any more. Quote from todays statement off the OS-homepage:
Due to respective orders of US-authorities for even higher security levels for flights to USA, passengers are required to not take hand-luggage on board of the flights.
...
Please mind, that all electronic devices like laptops, cellular phones etc. are also not allowed in hand-luggage. Please store these items in your regular baggage.
