Flying soon? Don’t let cabin baggage rules catch you off guard. From bag size limits to power banks and food items, here’s a quick guide every Indian traveller needs before boarding.

Cabin Bag Size & Weight – Most airlines allow one cabin bag up to 7 kg, plus a small personal item. Oversized or overweight bags may be checked in.

Liquids & Toiletries – Liquids, gels, and sprays must be under 100 ml each, packed in a clear zip-lock bag. Larger bottles go in checked luggage

Power Banks & Electronics – Power banks are only allowed in cabin baggage, not checked luggage. Keep them switched off and within airline-approved capacity.

Food Items – Dry snacks and packaged food are fine, but avoid liquids like curries or gravies. Security may restrict items with a strong smell.

Sharp Objects & Restricted Items – Knives, scissors, razors, and sharp tools are banned in cabin bags. Carry them only in checked luggage to avoid confiscation.

Medicines & Essentials – Prescription medicines, baby food, and essential liquids are allowed with proper documentation. Keep them handy for security checks.

Duty-Free Purchases – Liquor and perfumes bought at duty-free are allowed if sealed and within limits. Keep receipts handy for verification.
