Prepared Travel for Vacation: Guidance from the Federal Police for a Smooth Aviation Experience
Prepare for a hassle-free travel experience at Hannover Airport with these helpful tips from the Federal Police Inspectorate.
To ensure a swift passage through security checks, it's essential to adhere to the rules on liquids, gels, and aerosols in your hand luggage. By following these guidelines, you can help minimize waiting times for everyone.
Remember, if you're planning to take larger perfume or drink bottles on your trip, they must be packed in your checked baggage. This rule also applies to partially used containers with a volume of over 100 ml. For more details on prohibited items, you can find a comprehensive list on the Federal Police website.
Electronic devices such as hair dryers, tablets, and laptops should be placed separately in a baggage tray at the security checkpoint. Power tools, screwdrivers, baseball bats, or razor blades are also prohibited in hand luggage.
If you're transporting medication or baby food, it's important to speak to the security personnel directly and have a doctor's note ready for medication if available.

To make your journey even smoother, the Federal Police offers several suggestions. It's recommended to present yourself at the security checkpoint after check-in and to allocate enough time for baggage drop-off. You can also reserve a time slot for the security check online at www.hannover-airport.de/hajway or use the "SmartDepart" app.
Carried liquids must not exceed a volume of 100 ml each at the security checkpoint, and all containers must be stored in a transparent, reclosable bag with a capacity of no more than 1 liter. Firearms, pepper sprays, and knives with a blade length of over six centimeters are not allowed in hand luggage.
Lastly, it's crucial to check your identification documents for validity and completeness before traveling, as incomplete documents may lead to an early end to your trip at the border control.
The Federal Police wishes all travellers a pleasant journey and a nice holiday. Keep in mind that Hannover Airport may experience increased passenger numbers during summer holidays, so it's best to plan ahead and travel prepared.
