For as long as I can remember, after 9/11, LGA containers have always been limited to under 100ml. Whats the issue? Just stick to the regs and cruise on through.

The restriction was introduced following discovery of a terror plot in 2006.  9/11 was 2001.

At London Heathrow Terminal 2 you now leave everything in your carry on bag. Liquids, electronics, everything. They scan the bag/case just as it is.

 

They have the latest generation of Smiths detection machines.

Even Bristol airport 2 weeks ago. Much faster.

100ml has been standard for 20 years :coffee1:

And on any flight into Oz from Bangkok there is an additional security check at the entrance to the gate. I have seen people lose bottles of booze that they have purchased at duty free on numerous occasions.

It has nothing to do with the normal security scans that everyone must go through before passport control.

Every bag/ backpack etc is inspected by hand.

 

Duty free booze can be purchased, but must be in a sealed bag and delivered to the gate after the bag search. Unfortunately not every knows this and can lose a couple of hundred bucks of fine booze.

 BKK was recently upgraded by the US  and will “pave the way for direct flights from the US”….would that have any bearing on it ?

Probably

Thailand has revamped its airport security, applying stricter rules for carrying liquids, gels, and aerosols

On the way to Roi Et, Don Mueang confiscated my toothpaste recently.
