EU to abolish limits on carry-on liquids by 2013
Helen Kearns, spokeswoman for the EU Transport Commission, says airports will have to replace the restrictions with liquid screening machines.
The measure is part of a package of new EU regulations on flight safety aimed at streamlining the stringent security procedures introduced after the 9/11 attacks and other terror attempts.
Kearns said Thursday the new measures "should be a significant improvement in terms of convenience and ease of travel."
The restrictions on liquids in cabin baggage rank as one of the main sources of frustrations for airline passengers across the world.
