New security measures have been released concerning articles prohibited in the cabin and the transportation of liquids.

These measures apply to all flights departing from or transferring via a member state of the European Union (including French overseas territories), regardless of destination. For more information, consult the heading "Transportation of liquids in the cabin".

• Try to use hard-shell baggage.
  
• Remember to remove labels from previous flights.
  They could delay delivery of your baggage.
  
• Do not pack fragile objects into your hold baggage. If it is impossible for you to do otherwise, make certain these items are properly protected (reinforced and waterproof packaging).
  
• Both inside and outside each of your baggage items, write your name, permanent address and your destination address legibly.
  Labels for this purpose are available at the Air France check-in counters at the airport.

A baggage protection service using plastic film is available at the Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport.

When checking in, a destination label is affixed to each baggage item. Receipts for these labels are then given to you.
Keep your baggage label receipts safe. This measure means any lost baggage items can be found more easily.

In your hand baggage, keep objects which are fragile, valuable, required for your comfort during the flight: water, medicine, baby food, etc.

You cannot access your checked-in baggage.

• checking your name,
• comparing the label number affixed to your baggage with the number on the receipt you were given at check-in.
