Delhi airport implements one-handbag rule with few exceptions

New Delhi: In order to avoid any inconvenience to the passenger during the security check, the Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi has implemented a new rule, under which, a passenger can carry only one piece of hand luggage as cabin luggage.

As per the report by the Live Mint, the airport's officials informed that keeping in mind the advisory from the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) and Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS), only one piece of hand baggage is permitted per passenger.

While the airport authorities will strictly monitor that this rule is being followed, there are a few expectations.

Under the new rule implemented at the IGI airport in Delhi, along with the handbag as cabin luggage, few other items are allowed.

- An individual can carry a ladies handbag, an overcoat or a wrap, a rug or blanket, a camera or pair of binoculars, a reasonable amount of reading material, an umbrella or a walking stick, apart from their handbag, as cabin luggage.

- The passenger with a baby will be allowed to carry the infant's feed for consumption during the flight and the infant's carrying basket provided an infant is carried.

- Collapsible wheelchair and/or pair of crutches or braces for passenger's use, if dependent on these, are not exempted.
