Disposable Razor in CCR

Hello,

In a mad rush I packed my shaving razor in my case. Does CCR provide razors? Or will it be a quick trip to Boots!

Pretty sure you can ask for them in the showers if they're not already out. They are horrifically rubbish though, probably a better bet is to get a decent one from a shop and avoid hacking your face to pieces.

I also have a question - is it possible to carry safety razors in hand baggage?

I'll give the really bad CCR one a try. If it's too bad will buy one

I don't actually know?

I have done so a few times in the past, although i can't say for sure if its allowed or simply that nobody noticed it. It must be pretty hard to distinguish it from a cartridge razor on an x-ray screen.

Yes you can. BA actually have them onboard (on demand) in FIRST.

Depends on how you define safety razor Double edge razors are technically safety razors but their blades are prohibited in hand luggage. Cartridge and disposable razors are however fine.

I know I'm in the BA forum but safety blades are definitely not allowed in hand baggage in the USA if you travel our way (handles are fine but sometimes receive secondary inspection to ensure no blade is present)
