| |
| Each piece of hand luggage must be no bigger than 56cm x 45cm x 25cm and the clear, plastic bag must fit within this piece of hand luggage. Just one piece of hand luggage is allowed per passenger. |

| Those passengers needing to take walking aids, like wheelchairs or pushchairs for children are allowed to do so in addition to the one piece of hand luggage. These pieces will also have to be screened through Southampton security check points. |
| |
| Electricals & Laptops |
| |
Larger electrical goods being carried in hand luggage, along with laptops need to be removed from hand luggage and screened separately at Southampton security points.
Do note that if you are carrying a laptop case this will count as your one piece of allowed hand luggage. |
| |
| Oversized Items |
| |
Any item that does not fit within the hand luggage bag size has to be checked in to the aircraft hold.
An exception to this rule are musical instruments that can be carried onto the cabin. However, if the item is very large do check with the airline you are travelling with as you may be required to purchase an additional seat. |
