(Question on the maximum allowable quantity in an LTD QTY package and a Passenger Aircraft UN packaging.)
Q.
For some items, the max quantity allowed for an LTD QTY package and the max quantity allowed for a Passenger Aircraft UN packaging is the same. Example: UN3248. Isn?ft this strange?  (31 Jul 10)
A.
Taking the example mentioned, UN3248 Medicine, liquid, flammable, toxic, n.o.s. PG I, the max quantity of LTD QTY PI Y305 is 1L, and the max quantity of a Passenger UN packaging PI 305 is also 1L. This is not uncommon.

Please note however that the max of the inner packaging for LTD QTY is much less than that of the UN packaging. The max quantity of the inner packaging is regulated at a lower level for LTD QTY packagings.
