Editor's Notes
- Go to Part 8, Chapter 1 Tab this page. These are personal use items. Note that some items may be carried in both carry-on and checked baggage (such as toiletries) while others are restricted to carry-on only, on one’s person (lighters, safety matches), or checked bagged only (small-arms ammunition). Note also that operator approval is required for some items. Many airlines will have more restrictive policies in this area than ICAO does.
- There may be other regulations that affect alcohol in baggage, such as Customs. In the US, it is unlawful to consume your own alcohol on a commercial flight, it must be provided by the carrier (14 CFR regulation). Special Provisions A9 and A58 provide exceptions for alcoholic beverrages as cargo.
- These are not regulated dangerous goods so the limits of the exceptions do not apply. Passengers can carry as much as they like. Again, there may be other regulations (Customs, etc) affecting alcoholic beverages.
- The 150-proof rum is a big issue in the Caribbean.
- 8; 1.1.2(b) gives examples of these articles but this is NOT a definition or exclusive list. Currently each State has to make this determination for themselves. Flammable aerosols ARE OK if they are toiletries (hairspray, etc.). Countries have varying opinions on what is or isn’t a toiletry. The ICAO DG Board is currently exploring this issue with hopes of defining the term better.
- There are very few nonflammable aerosols in existence. Most of the Dust-Off aerosols (electronic cleaners) are non-flammable. Not all flat-tire-fixer aerosols are nonflammable like the on pictured here
- There is no correct answer to any of these. It is a matter of opinion. The latest US DOT opinion allows the insect repellent but not the other three. However, the DOT has given conflicting opinions in the past on these examples. We have heard from Canada that they do not consider mosquito repellent to be a toilet or medicinal article. Until ICAO comes up with a definition, it will be each country’s decision as to whether or not to allow these aerosols under the passenger exceptions.
- Does not cover liquid oxygen. Personal oxygen cylinders not allowed in the US. Oxygen must be provided by the operator. Oxygen “concentrators” are not DG, so they are allowed (though may fall under the regulations for using electronic devices in the cabin).
- The CO2 cartridges are generally used like shock absorbers in these devices.
- Butane (liquefied gas) lighters and Zippo-type lighter (liquid fuel in absorbent liner) are OK. Lighter with liquid fuel but no absorbent lining are not. Quantity limit is “personal use”. Must use judgment here. In the US, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has banned lighters from the cabin of the aircraft for security reasons.
- Passengers are not considered DG even though some medicines and devices inside them would be DG when shipped separately. The examples listed are not a complete list.
- Most of these have nonspillable batteries. Most airlines are experienced in dealing with these.
- Also called “curling irons” in the USA
- These are heavy duty instruments that contain a lot of mercury. Mercury medical thermometers are covered in another paragraph / slide.
- Military passengers often carry these. This exception doesn’t cover other DG that may be with “survival vests” such as flares, matches, etc.
- Portable soldering equipment and scuba diving lights (“underwater torch” in British English) are examples.
- Mercury thermometers are the ones that are hard to read. Thermometers with red in them are usually alcohol based and not covered here (probably not a DG).
- Examples: watches, cameras, laptop computers, etc. “Lithium ion” batteries are generally the rechargeable lithium batteries, whereas “Lithium metal” refers to primary (non-rechargeable) batteries.
