EU to end Carry-on Liquids Ban

The European Union has similar rules currently in place to those in the U.S. when it comes to carrying liquids on board. But that will be changing.

The EU's top transportation official announced today that once new security screening methods are implemented, passengers will be permitted to carry liquids on board without size requirements. No date was announced for these changes.

EU Transport Commissioner Antonio Tajani told The Associated Press "he is 'resolved to get rid of these awkward and very uncomfortable' checks on passengers when new technology to screen for explosives becomes available."
