Can I take a hair straightener in my carry-on baggage?
Most people travel by air travel. And at the moment when it is time to collect your suitcases, many are wondering what items you can take with you on the plane. This question is especially relevant for women, because they are the ones who always carry with them a lot of things that they consider the most necessary.
Such things include a cosmetic bag, hygiene products, small household appliances. And girls with curly hair do not travel without an iron that straightens their hair. But is it possible to take it in hand luggage? This is what we will talk about in this article.
How can you transport?
During flights, there are 2 options for transporting necessary things: in carry-on baggage or checked in baggage. As for the hair straightener, someone, without specifying the information, puts this device in the luggage, considering it mandatory. But this is not strictly necessary - it can be taken in hand luggage.
To make sure of this, you should study the rules of well-known airlines, carefully read the reviews of passengers using their services.
Why is it better to take with you?
We have already decided that the hair straightener can be carried with you on board the aircraft in your carry-on baggage. It is now necessary to find out why it is better to take the device with you.
- If you put it in your luggage, it will most likely result in additional financial costs. The thing is that the cost of transporting baggage over a certain weight is not included in the cost of the flight. Therefore, every traveler should understand that for a heavy suitcase or bag you will have to pay separately, or, more precisely, for the overweight. By the way - an iron can weigh up to several kilograms.
- It's no secret that quite often luggage is lost. This situation will not be pleasant enough for any girl.
- It is possible that on the plane you need to tweak your hair... Just before the flight, it is advisable to clarify whether there are sockets on board the aircraft.
As you can see, there are more than enough reasons for the rectifier to be in your carry-on baggage. The only thing that needs to be done before the flight is to learn the name of the devices in English, so that you can easily explain what and why you are taking. We have already figured out the hair straightener, but let's clarify the information about the hair styling products that women take with them with the straightener.
All well-known and existing airlines allow you to take cosmetic products with you on board, the volume of which does not exceed 100 ml. Therefore, if you dare to take, for example, a 250 ml hair lotion, it will most likely be removed during examination.
Where can you clarify?
Experienced travelers are probably well acquainted with the information about which things and items can be taken on board the plane, and which are strictly prohibited. If you are traveling by plane for the first time, it is advisable to clarify the information if you have any doubts about your baggage. All you need to do is call to the airline hotlineservice you intend to use.
The contact phone is, of course, on the official website. It is the company representative who will be able to competently and correctly advise the client.
