(Hair curler without safety cover)
Q.
DGR specifies that no more than one Hair Curler containing hydrocarbon gas per passenger is permitted as baggage provided that the safety cover is securely fitted over the heating element. How should an airline agent treat a hair curler that is not equipped with a safety cover?  (11 Feb 04)
A.
You will have to reject such hair curler without a safety cover. As gas refills for hair curlers are not permitted in checked or carry-on baggage, the gas cartridge must be removed and disposed. The hair curler without the gas cartridge May be carried as baggage.
