From June 1, 11 Scottish airports will benefit from a GBP1 million upgrade that will affect security and hand baggage limits, thanks to new enhanced screening equipment.
The Highlands and Islands (HAIL) airports are upgrading to new high-tech x-ray equipment that ends the requirement for placing liquids in clear plastic bags with a maximum 100ml in each container - passengers will be allowed to carry up to two litres of liquids in hand luggage.
The new scanners also mean an end to removing laptops and electricals from cabin bags.
