Has this no liquids policy (in the aircraft cabin) immediately spread all around the world?
 
Trying to ask this with no political overtones...

Have these new restrictions spread - - within hours? days? to every flight from Spain to Germany? from Sweden to Poland? from Denmark to Egypt? From Moscow to Tokyo?

This isn't a question about whether the restrictions _should_ or should not be applied to route X or Y or Z...

...simply, _are_ the restrictions in place?

If you have flown recently on a flight from any country (other than US, UK, France or Italy) to any other destination (in that country or in any other country)... what date was the flight? and were the restrictions imposed or not?

Curious minds want to know.

Best wishes,

Rex

On Tuesday at 3 a.m. my DH flew Cathay
Pacific to Hong Kong then Singapore Air
to SIN - no liquids allowed in cabin
baggage on either flight. He had been
advised of this restriction on Monday.

Air France allows liquids on all flights not serving the US, UK and Israel.

No hand-luggage restrictions on my recent flight into the UK (Brussels > Edinburgh on Friday 11 August), only on the way back (no liquids).

Ah, to live in France...

...just one more reason...

Just came back from Seattle to Zürich via Heathrow today. Liquids were not allowed anywhere. However, we saw a couple who had bought two bottles of Bailey's at Heathrow airport and transported them in a clear plastic bag. They boarded British Airways to Zürich without a care in the world.

From Flyertalk.com

Today at NRT. They have a big sign saying that if you're traveling to the US or the UK, the liquids ban is in place, and you have to take your shoes off for x-raying. They check your boarding pass, and if you're not going to the US or to the UK, business as usual. No laptop out of bag, no liquids ban, and no shoe carnival.
