Here’s the truth: Gatwick security staff have seen it all. They’ve watched people cry over a forgotten pot of face cream. They’ve seen someone try to argue that “it’s only 102ml, mate.” Don’t be that person.
Just follow the rules. Pack your 100ml bottles in a clear bag. Keep it handy. Smile at the nice security officer. And for the love of all that is holy, double-check your pockets for loose change before you walk through the metal detector.
You’ve got this. Now go enjoy your trip. And remember: less liquid in your bag means more space for snacks. And snacks are always the priority. Always.
