Can nail clippers be taken on the plane?

Under the current aviation safety regulations, it is generally possible to bring nail clippers on the plane.

Most airlines are allowed to carry nail clippers up to 6 cm (2.36 inches). Nail clippers exceeding this length may be considered prohibited. When buying nail clippers, it is best to choose the legal size that meets the aviation security standards. Some airlines require the edges of nail clippers to be round or protected to prevent possible accidents in flight. This is to ensure safety and avoid potential injury risks. Therefore, it is suggested to choose a safe nail clipper to meet the relevant regulations.

When going through the security check, you need to put the nail clippers in the transparent plastic bag of your carry-on luggage for security check together with other liquid items. This is to facilitate the security personnel to check the goods and ensure safety.

Flight common sense:

1. safety demonstration: before each flight takes off, the crew will give a safety demonstration. Although you may have heard it many times, please pay close attention and follow the instructions of the crew. Knowing the location of emergency exits, how to use oxygen masks and how to wear life jackets will help you stay calm and react correctly in an emergency.

2. Hydration: During flight, the humidity in the cabin is usually low, which will cause the body to dehydrate easily. So, in order to keep healthy and comfortable, remember to drink water regularly. Although full water can't pass the security check, you can take an empty water bottle and let the crew fill it up at the airport or plane after passing the security check.

3. Time difference adjustment: Time difference adjustment will be very important if you want to cross multiple time zones in a long flight. Adapt to the destination time in advance and try to adjust the sleep time a few days before the flight takes off. During the flight, try to rest and adjust your schedule according to the destination time. This will help you adapt to the new time zone more quickly and reduce the discomfort caused by jet lag.
