joidevie Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Will UK airports currently allow me a couple of battery powered drills (without bits!) in my hand luggage? (Stansted in particular).5 years ago Carcassonne would not allow my jigsaw even without a blade and I had to check it in..Many thanks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others are available but I have used parcel2ship to France and had a good service.RegardsPickles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joidevie Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 Thought so.. Thanks. Plan B was to ship a DHL for the £20, usually up to 19kg if I remember.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still the drug dealers and people trafficers carry on their merry way whilst the rest of us suffer. [:@] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
