What can I actually take into the cabin with me on a plane?

[ChildOfThe70s]

I haven't been on a plane since before 9/11 and now that the security regs have changed I have no idea what I can take on board or how much stuff. Can anyone enlighten me, or give me a link to a useful website please?

Can the DCs bring their usual drinks bottles or do they have to have clear water only? What about their Nintendo DS - can they use them onboard?

Thanks for your help!!

The DCs can't take their drinks bottles - you will need to buy any drinks you want after security.

You can't take: scissors, penknives, tweezers, liquids/gel/paste over 200ml, or in a container of over 200ml through security (can buy them airside)

You can have: liquids in containers of less than 100ml, and your total cabin allowance per person of liquid/gel/paste must fit in a small resealable clear bag (sandwich bag size), DS is OK (but must be off during takeoff and landing as must all electronic devices and no earphones in then either)
