Vienna International Airport liquids and security rules
Flying from Vienna? Here is what Vienna International Airport states about liquids and electronics in hand luggage.
Up to 2 litres
Vienna has lifted the 100 ml rule: liquids in containers of up to 2,000 ml and electrical or electronic devices may stay inside your cabin bag through the checkpoint, with no transparent bag needed.
| Liquid container limit | Up to 2 litres |
| Clear plastic bag needed | No |
| Liquids can stay in your bag | Yes |
| Laptops can stay in your bag | Yes |
What this means at Vienna International Airport
- Airport's own wording: "Liquids (up to a container size of 2000 ml) and electrical/electronic devices may remain in cabin bag."
- plastic_bag_required recorded as false because a 2,000 ml container cannot be carried in a 1-litre bag and the page sets no bag requirement; the page does not mention a transparent bag at all.
- "All liquids are subject to security screening" - carrying large quantities may trigger extra screening and delay.
- The page gives no separate wording on medicines, baby food, duty free, terminal differences or transfer passengers, and advises checking with your airline.
