THE Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has relaxed restrictions on carry-on items at United States airports. As of August 4, passengers will be allowed to bring their disposable and refillable butane cigarette lighters, such as Bic and Zippo brands, on board flights. However, torch-style lighters will still be prohibited. Also, mothers will be permitted to carry baby milk in quantities exceeding the 100ml restriction as long as it is declared for inspection at security checkpoints. This is according to Travelinfo’s City Alerts, a unique reference tool and global travel advisory guide that warns and informs. City Alerts covers the latest travel tips and info for over 315 cities in over 161 countries.
