Transportation
The U.K. Department for Transport on 7 January will lift the one-item limit on hand baggage for flights departing from more than 20 airports
, including Edinburgh, London City, London Heathrow, London Stansted and Manchester. British Airways' passengers flying from Heathrow would be able to carry on two pieces of baggage, and the airline said it wants carry-on restrictions at London Gatwick to end "as quickly as possible." EasyJet said it would maintain the one-bag limit for all passengers departing from U.K. airports "to minimize customer confusion." In addition to Gatwick, the limit remains in place at EasyJet stations in Belfast, Bristol, East Midlands, Liverpool and London Luton.
