This surpasses annual expectations and pre-pandemic levels, with expectations of increased traffic rates to secure over 100 million passengers and 4 million tonnes of cargo by the end of the current decade, approaching its highest historical record ever. In 2023, it was ranked as the best airport in the world in terms of international passenger numbers for the 10th consecutive year, according to the International Airport Council, and classified among the top 10 cargo facilities globally in terms of international cargo movement.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<h3>Q: What challenges do security personnel face on a daily basis?<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>A: We deal daily with hundreds of thousands of passengers. Naturally, some are not familiar with the latest laws and regulations, especially those on lithium batteries, sharp objects, liquids, gels, and other restricted items on carry-on baggage.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>Avoid carrying liquids, sprays, and gels of any kind in the carry-on baggage unless necessary, such as for medical or infant needs. If necessary, the individual package should not exceed 100ml, and the total quantity in all containers should not exceed 1,000ml. The same applies to metal medical devices placed in your body; these essentials must be prescribed by a doctor and you must present them when requested.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"adv \">\n<div id=\"gulfnews_uae_article_3\" data-gpt=\"Gulfnews_Article\/gulfnews_uae_article\/gulfnews_uae_article_3\" data-atf=\"0\" data-size=\"[320,50]\" data-size-mapping=\"[ [ [ 1024, 500 ], [ [300,100], [300,250], [710,250], [710,400], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [ 768, 420], [ [300,100], [300,250], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [640, 320], [ [300,250], [300,100], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [0, 0], [ [300,250], [300,100], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ] ]\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>Exceptions include packages purchased from duty-free shops.

Travellers are urged to comply with security procedures and have confidence in security personnel for their safety and the safety of other travellers.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<h3>Q: What items do passengers frequently object to being confiscated?<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>A: We often face objections or comments regarding certain confiscated items such as devices and tools containing lithium metal batteries. These items are prohibited by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) regulations, as well as national regulations. Passengers are advised to familiarise themselves with the list of prohibited items. They must adhere to carrying the permitted number of mobile phones. Contact with lithium metal batteries in phones poses a security risk to airport facilities and aircraft.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>When it comes to cosmetics and personal care items, sharp objects like scissors, nail file, or other sharp tools that could potentially harm anyone or damage the aircraft prohibited. Therefore, we advise travellers to avoid carrying such items, not to argue with security personnel about it, as these are international regulations and laws. Additionally, carrying compressed flammable containers of any size, such as lighters and sprays, is prohibited. This also applies to gifts and children\u2019s toys resembling weapons and explosives, regardless of their intended use.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"adv \">\n<div id=\"gulfnews_uae_article_4\" data-gpt=\"Gulfnews_Article\/gulfnews_uae_article\/gulfnews_uae_article_4\" data-atf=\"0\" data-size=\"[320,50]\" data-size-mapping=\"[ [ [ 1024, 500 ], [ [300,100], [300,250], [710,250], [710,400], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [ 768, 420], [ [300,100], [300,250], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [640, 320], [ [300,250], [300,100], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ],[ [0, 0], [ [300,250], [300,100], [1,1], [336,280], [200,200], [250,250] ] ] ]\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<figure itemprop=\"associatedMedia image\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"media-portrait pull-left\">\n        <picture>\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imagevars.gulfnews.com\/2024\/05\/16\/Dubai-Police-Airport-Security_18f8041ae9b_original-ratio.jpg\" alt=\"Dubai Police Airport Security\">\n        <\/picture><figcaption class=\"image-caption\" itemprop=\"description\">\n            Dubai Police Airport Security works with the latest innovations to ensure highest levels of safety.<br \/>\n            <span class=\"image-credit\">Image Credit: Supplied<\/span><br \/>\n    <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<h3>Q: What advice do you have for travellers?<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>We advise travellers not to carry other people\u2019s luggage regardless of their justifications, as you ultimately do not know the contents of these bags and what they conceal.
