Nice Côte d'Azur Airport liquid rules: 100 ml limit
Flying from Nice? The verdict, the airport's own wording and its source link are below. Checked 27 October 2026 against the airport's own website. Same rules for hand luggage and carry-on.
Nice applies the 100 ml rule: liquids, aerosols and gels in one closed transparent bag of up to 1 litre (20 x 20 cm), one per passenger, shown to the security officer separately from your cabin baggage. Laptops and large electrical devices go in a separate tray.
| Liquid container limit | 100 ml limit |

What this means at Nice Côte d'Azur Airport
- Airport states: "these must be placed in one closed, transparent plastic bag with a maximum capacity of 1 litre (20 x 20 cm) and presented to the security officer separately from your cabin baggage".
- "only one plastic bag is permitted per passenger for carrying Liquids/Aerosols/Gels".
- Airport states: "take out any laptops and large electrical devices from your cabin baggage and put them into a separate tray".
- Foods and other substances that are similar to a liquid or gel at room temperature count too: "These products should be less than 100 g, or in containers of less than 100 mL", and go in the same bag.
- The airport words the limit as 'less than 100 ml', so do not rely on a container that is exactly on the line.
