Pay special attention to how liquids are packed in your checked baggage. During the journey it will be exposed to considerable pressure changes, which in turn may cause the container to leak and spill the contents. It is worth protecting them additionally, for example by placing them in a sealed plastic bag.

Remember also to properly protect containers made of fragile material (e.g. glass bottles with alcohol) by wrapping them in a soft material.

Additionally:

• The maximum allowed weight/volume for a single product is 0.5 kg (1 lb) or 0.5 L (1 pt).
• The total weight/volume of all cosmetics and medical items must not exceed 2 kg (4.4 lb) or 2 L (2 qt) of net mass.

Keep this in mind while packing.

You can take perfume up to a maximum volume of 100 ml in your carry-on luggage. Pack them in a transparent plastic bag so that they can be removed quickly and conveniently from your hand luggage during security control.

Perfumes which you purchase in the duty free area of airport shops or on board the aircraft do not count towards the 100 ml limit. Please note, however, that in this case the purchased perfume should remain in its original packaging in a special bag (STEB) marked with red tapes. Also keep your receipts for reference. During your connecting flight, you may be asked by the security check operator to produce them.

All liquids - including cosmetics and perfumes that meet the definition of liquid substances - in containers up to 100ml in volume should be placed in a single, transparent bag with a maximum volume of 1 liter. For example, this could be a clear plastic drawstring bag available in most large stores/supermarkets.

It's also common for bags for carrying liquids to be available at airports, but it's a good idea to prepare the liquids for transportation yourself - before you travel - in order to pass through security smoothly and avoid possible stress.
