While most travellers are well aware of rules around liquids, other items like sandwiches and wraps can be tricky.
It is for this reason that we have sought to answer this and other commonly asked questions.
Can I take sandwiches and wraps through airport security?
Most people coming to airports falsely believe that solid foods like sandwiches and wraps are not allowed through airport security.
Travellers are allowed to bring solid foods through security, but to save themselves hassle and speed up the process, they should pack these items in clear plastic bags.
Can I take a vape on a plane?
With vapes growing in popularity, more and more people have started to have questions around travelling with these items.
Northerner states that any vaping device with a built-in battery or an installed battery should be packed in carry-on baggage and turned off.
Even though passengers are allowed to have their vapes with them on an aircraft, they are not permitted to use them.

What are the hand luggage rules for liquids and why do they exist?
According to the UK Government, liquids in containers of more than 100ml are banned from passing through security at most airports.
This rule was introduced in 2006 to make it harder for those with hostile intent from carrying explosive liquids onto planes.
Since then, there have been moves to slowly ease these rules through the use of more advanced scanners.
Earlier this year, Edinburgh Airport lifted the restriction, meaning passengers can each take up to two litres through security.
