Thanks everyone for your replies. I think that i will leave this gas styler at home and take an electric one to be on the safe side.

Many thanks

Hi

I know all airlines are different but BA say you can take them in either hand or hold luggage and the cylinder must be attached, and must not be used on board.

I found this under BA's baggage essentials, personal and electrical items, perhaps Monarch have a similar link.

Years ago when I used this kind if thing!!!! It had to be in the main as and the gas part had to not be connected..

Hi LoopyLou,

There doesn't seem to be any guidelines prohibiting you taking this with you - however where you should pack it seems to be a bit of a grey area and we would err on the side of caution and suggest this is stowed in your suitcase.

Monarch directed us to their website which has some information but doesn't really cover liquefied gas energy cells.
