Scottish holidaymakers are being advised to keep four specific items out of their hand luggage this summer, even as rules on 100ml liquids are set to be phased out across all UK airports.

Aberdeen Airport has already scrapped these restrictions, but experts at Fulton Umbrellas warn that there are still certain items better left at home to avoid confiscation at airport security.
