Can I take oranges/lemons through security in hand luggage?
Can I take oranges/lemons through security in hand luggage?
by Shelles » Fri Dec 08, 2017 9:46 am
My Mum loves home made lemonade and orange juice and I have loads of oranges and lemons on my trees. Does anyone know if I can take a couple of bags in my cabin bag (considering the 100ml rule and the fruit being full of juice).
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

We took bags full of oranges and lemons, garlic, onions and olives ( minus the juice) through customs in our hand luggage. There was no problem in Alicante airport or UK.

Yes, I carry as many I can fit in my hand baggage, especially lemons ! The lemons you buy in UK are tiny wee things so I love the look of shock on Family's faces when I produce some of the gargantuan ones from the trees in our garden - essential G & T ingredient....
Never had any problems at Alicante ....

Shelles, it's not only your mum that will love them, tell her to give some to her friends, I did that last year when my friend gave me some oranges from his tree. My step daughters didnt believe they were oranges until they actually tasted them. Makes a mockery of the little piddly (spanish ) oranges that the supermarkets sell in the UK.

Manxmunk, we have my son, daughter-in-law and grandson staying with us and we all love our fruit. I can’t carry enough oranges in my cabin bag to give any to my Mum’s friends. We’ll devour the lot within a week. I once took a plateau of mangoes home in a cabin bag and the family loved them too.
Cheers

No, GLASSMAN, but the fruit that they are selling in the UK is a smaller version of what your picking of your trees in Spain, and nowhere near as juicy.
