Passengers at Dublin Airport can keep liquids in their luggage at security from today, thanks to new scanning technology.

The old 100ml or less liquid rule requiring clear plastic bags is being relaxed too and departing passengers will be permitted to carry up to two litres in their hand luggage.

Around 30 new C3 scanners and body scanners have been rolled out in Dublin Airport’s two terminals. The C3 scanners use technology similar to CT scanners in hospitals, generating 3D images of bags, which make it easier to detect what is inside.

Lead travel writer & journalist Eoghan Corry joined us on The Agenda to tell us more about this.
