About time as this is a stupid rule especially as it only applies here. I flew out to America and had to put my handbag in my carryon suitcase so I had my handbag available as soon as we landed. Coming home from America I got on the plane with my hanbag not packed in my carryon suitcase ie had 2 pieces of hand luggage.

The liquids rule is equally daft and insisting all bottles etc are in a clear plastic bag does not make me feel any more secure.
