Passengers travelling from either Birmingham or Edinburgh airport will no longer need to ensure liquids in their carry-on baggage are 100ml or below, due to the installation of new security equipment.

Passengers will now be able to keep all of their belongings, including any liquid in containers up to 2 litres, in their bags as they travel through the security checkpoint.

Whilst these new rules are expected to roll out to further airports across the UK, currently they are only in place for Birmingham and Edinburgh airports. Please also keep this in mind for your return journey as the airport you're departing from will likely still adhere to the 100ml rule.

Please note, if you have visited Cuba since 2011 you may need additional documentation to enter the USA. Please make sure you are aware of these rules. Visit the USA ESTA webpage for more information.

All electronic devices larger than mobile phones should be carried in hold luggage when travelling from Turkey, Egypt, Morocco or Tunisia. For full information about luggage restrictions for UK airports, visit gov.uk.

Please note e-cigarettes and related products have recently been banned by both the Indian and Turkish governments. This means that you'll be unable to take e-cigarettes into the country or to buy them whilst there. For more information visit gov.uk.

You'll need to complete a 'Traveller Declaration' form 96 hours before you arrive in the Maldives. However, you are no longer required to fill out this form when leaving the Maldives, which simplifies the process.

Since Brexit, the majority of EU countries no longer accept British passports that were issued more than 10 years before the date of travel. This is known as the "10-year rule".

To enter these countries now, your UK passport must:

• Have been issued less than 10 years before the date you enter the EU country (the "date of issue")

• Be valid for at least three months after the day you plan to leave (the "date of expiry")

If your passport does not meet these requirements, you will be refused entry. These rules apply in all 27 EU countries, except Ireland, which has its own separate travel arrangements with the UK.
