How strictly is carry-on baggage checked on flights departing Sharm El Sheikh?

In another recent case, the traveler was only asked to open the carry-on bag, without an extensive inspection. They brought back a can of cola, but liquids in cabin baggage are normally restricted by aviation-security rules.

Another report describes passing through with a carry-on bag, a handbag and a neck pillow without issues. Still, check your airline’s item-count and size rules in advance.

One traveler reported that carry-on baggage was not weighed before departure; fins protruding beyond the nominal bag dimensions were not questioned. Treat this as an isolated experience, not a guarantee.
