The UK government is in discussions with security companies and UK airports to lift the ban on liquids in carry-on luggage as early as next year. Technology already in-place at Heathrow’s Terminal 5 can automatically detect the presence of liquids in carry-on bags. Scientists are testing the scanners to ensure they can also determine if the liquids are harmful.
