Only two-thirds of international UK airports have scrapped the strict cap – which now lets tourists effectively take as much as they want.

The new rule is due to the implementation of new 3D security scanners, which have allowed several airports to axe the meagre 100ml limit.

The 15 international airports in the UK are set to scrap the pesky 100ml rule.

But so far, only two thirds of that list have adopted the new policy.

This leaves 10 airports that have permitted the higher levels of liquid on board.

Tourists now arriving or departing from the UK can expect faster security checks as new 3D CT scanners start to replace older systems.

The infamous 100ml rule is now set to go, but the current number of airports that have enacted this policy is still limited.

Cutting-edge technology will allow passengers to carry a whopping two litres of of liquids in their hand luggage – without needing to remove them at security.

The new airports which will have this groundbreaking rule are Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Gatwick, Leeds, Bradford, London City, Luton, Newcastle, Southend and Teesside.

For travellers going through any of these airports, liquids in containers of up to 100ml are still allowed.

There is no restriction on the amount of liquids that can be carried in these containers.

Passengers can keep their liquids in their hand luggage – which removes the need for a separate plastic bag.

Holidaygoers can also leave electronics such as laptops inside their bags thanks to the new technology.

The latest state-of-the-art CT scanners have been engineered with much better 3D imaging technology.

Traditional X-ray machines produce two-dimensional images.

But these new breakthrough scanners create a more detailed, rotatable 3D visualisation of your baggage.

The 100ml limit was rolled out in 2006.

Ever since, travellers have gotten accustomed to not bringing more than that amount on holiday.

They were also condemned to opening their bags up every time they entered security checkpoints.

But these revolutionary scanners are set to change this.

International airports such as Glasgow, Heathrow, Manchester, Stansted and Liverpool are still yet to remove the strict limit.
