I don't know if it's changed since last September, but I had a netbook, camera and phone with me. Had no problems going through with any of those.

Well, they do seem to come up with new rules constantly so it's always a good idea to read the Airline's webpages just before travel. :thumbsup:

DH always has his batteries in his hand luggage and he has WAY MORE than two. We fly with Virgin and have never had any problems.

He usually has about 12 batteries in all.
