A SCOTTISH airport has issued a key update for passengers planning on travelling this summer.
Edinburgh Airport has reminded people that new security rules around 100ml liquids will remain the same.
We previously told how new scanners being installed at the Scottish airport would remove the need for passengers to take liquids, gels and electronic devices out of their hand luggage before passing through security.

However, in a statement posted on Twitter/X on Tuesday, the airport said: “Please prepare for security as normal and continue to follow the 100ml liquid rules.
“New scanners are being installed at security however this is an ongoing process and the rules will not change this summer.
“Liquids must be under 100ml and put in a clear bag, and large electricals like laptops need to go in the tray with nothing covering them.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
