What the petition asks
After today's events on the Egyptair flight terrorists are still finding a way to get on-board passenger aircraft and being able to damage lives, We need to be STRICT on polices - the way to do this is having all airlines putting a STOP on hand luggage by law! We have to prevent terrorism happening!
Terrorism is still happening and we have to put barriers in place to stop it from happening - Let's get a LAW in place to STOP passengers carrying hand luggage then we can be one step closer to being safer!
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
The UK Parliament doesn't have the power to ban hand luggage on every flight across the world. You could start a new petition calling on Parliament to ban hand luggage on flights entering and leaving the UK.
