Luggage Allowance Hand Baggage: You can take one piece of hand baggage into the cabin with you.

For restrictions check https://www.gov.uk/hand-luggage-restrictions/overview Liquids in hand baggage There are a number of rules to remember about what to put in your hand baggage and what to leave at home. Importantly, the word liquids has a wider meaning than you would perhaps think in the first instance. For example: lip balm, lip sticks, hand creams, deodorant, and hair spray are all considered liquids in this context. The rules: The liquid is in a container with a maximum volume of 100ml All containers must comfortably fit into a transparent, re-sealable 1 litre plastic bag, measuring no more than 20 x 20cm This plastic bag must be removed from the hand baggage and shown separately to airport security You ll be asked to dispose of any liquids that don t match these requirements so it pays to take note! Checked Baggage (luggage that goes into the hold) - You may check in luggage which must not exceed 20kg. For more details see http://www.easyjet.com/en/planning/baggage.html.
