How many bottles of alcohol can I carry in a plane from Stockholm?

Hi,



I'm traveling from Stockholm to India this month. I just want to know how many bottles of alcohol can I carry in the plane to India.



If I can carry more than one do I necessarily need to buy the bottles from shops in the airport or can I buy it from outside and carry it with me?



Please help.



Best Regards

AnandHow many bottles of alcohol can I carry in a plane from Stockholm?You CAN'T carry any IN the plane, but you can put some in your suitecase... the rules might be diffrent for India...

but in general from OUTSIDE the E.U to bring BACK into E.U it is

200 Cigarettes

2l Table Wine

1l Liquire/Sprit e.g. Vodka



but that is if your OUTSIDE the E.U entering an E.U country... it might be diffrent for going to India... maybe ask the airline you booked the flight with ??



**The exception is in the Airport I think you can buy AS MUCH AS YOU CAN CARRY... so maybe going to Inida you wanted some famous drinks from Syockholm, you could buy as many as you can carry inside the aeroport** but check the laws on entering India with drinks first...

How to translate a point 45 degrees on the coordinate plane?

How would one translate a point 45 degrees clockwise on the coordinate plane? I know that to translate the point 90 degrees you have to change the x and y coordinate...ex: (7,1) becomes (1,7) and change the sign of the new y coordinate making the point (1,-7)....does anyone know how to do this? Your help is greatly appreciated!How to translate a point 45 degrees on the coordinate plane?Sure. To rotate (x,y) through angle a, use:

x' = x*cos(a) + y*sin(a)

y' = y*cos(a) - x*sin(a)

Why does an plane have to be pushed back from an airport stand?

Why can't the pilot just reverse the plane him-/herself?Why does an plane have to be pushed back from an airport stand?The aircraft has to be pushed back for two reasons. Firstly, the aircraft is too close to the terminal if its connected to a gate even though most aircraft can turn virtually sideways. The engine thrust would damage the terminal building during the turn. Secondly, There are often other aircraft parked too close to make the turn possible. If the reverse thrust is used, apart from the incredible noise generated, again the thrust would be dangerous to ground staff, terminal and aircraft parked nearby. There is no connection between the wheels and the engine, they only have brakes.Why does an plane have to be pushed back from an airport stand?
Using reverse thrust at a gate would not only be an enormous waste of jet fuel it could also be a serious hazard to all kinds of things. In fact they are talking about not only pushing back from the gate but actually using the tractor to move planes up to the main taxi-ways i.e. nearly the end of the runway. On big jets this allegedly would save something like 3 tonnes of fuel.Why does an plane have to be pushed back from an airport stand?Airplanes do not have a reverse gear -- reverse is used to slow the airplane down not go backwards.Why does an plane have to be pushed back from an airport stand?
I think mainly to save fuel needed for the flight and I don鈥檛 think most planes can reverse (well not into mountains :-)Why does an plane have to be pushed back from an airport stand?There are different scenarios which warrant the pilot reversing the plane himself. Most planes are pushed from the gate for safety reasons. There are certain gates in Terminal 3 of O'hare that the plane is only reversed out by the pilot. I'm not a pilot, but there are times when the pilots can reverse the plane out vs. a push.
Probably because they don't have a reverse gear like in a car, and they can't see where they are going.Why does an plane have to be pushed back from an airport stand?
lol while your at it...maybe they should put on some reversing sensors as it is quite a large thing lol
I thought "pushing Back" was just a term, and planes DID reverse themselves. Just goes to show, eh!Why does an plane have to be pushed back from an airport stand?
An aircraft engines do not reverse - the blades in the jets do. An aircraft on the apron could do this - but it would be a waste of energy when a tractor can 'tug' it out.

When an aircraft lands, you hear the engines roar. This is NOT reverse, it is the engines working hard, with the blades reversed
Jets can't push backwards. And can you imagine what jet thrust would do to the terminal buildings?



However many propeller driven aircraft CAN reverse the thrust of their propellers and reverse unaided- The DeHavilland Dash 8, for instance. They regularly do this when they are "out in the sticks" at minimal, rural airstrips.
Good question. They could reverse engines and back up, but that would blow the **** out of the docking area. That's the only reason they don't.
Duh ... there's no rear view or wing mirrors. How's he going to see where he's going
becasue the engines cant be moved to throw the wind on the front side its desigined to move it in the forward motion only
The airplane doesn't have a motor that turns the wheels like a car. It has a jet engine that pushes air. Putting jet thrusters in reverse uses ALOT of energy and fuel (and might cause damage to the immediately adjacent building). It's easier and more efficient to use the engine on a small truck to push the plane backwards.
They might not be able to start up the jet engines that close to a building. The force might blow the windows out or something.
Because using power on the engines would cause damage to the stand
Only jets and turboprops can pushback on their own.Commercial jets are pushed back because it's less stress on the engines ands saves fuel,it's also less dangerous around the gate area.You don't get the turbulance from the reverse thrust of the engines around the gate area where luggage or traffic cones may become airborne.
they dont go in reverse, and even if they did, when the pilot reved up the engines, it would proberly smash all the windows with all the noise and pressure,

  • What papers/identification do you need to get on a plane?

    In July I am going to California to visit colleges with my father, I do not know what papers/identification I will need to actually board the plane...I know it's a stupid question but I really don't know. Like my birth certificate, identification, social security card, passport, etc...?What papers/identification do you need to get on a plane?You get a boarding pass at the desk where you book in, and that is all you want.What papers/identification do you need to get on a plane?before you get your boarding pass you will need to present photo ID to the check in counter-so a driving license or SSC or passport will be needed.What papers/identification do you need to get on a plane?You just need a photo ID, such as a driver's license. I've been allowed to board by showing just my debit card (which has my photo on it), but I think it should probably be government-issued.

    How do you Plane a Block of Wood Without Chipping its ends?

    I need some help answering the following question. I really do not know the answer, so any help would be greatly appreciated:



    Question: How do you Plane a Block of Wood Without Chipping its ends?



    -ThanksHow do you Plane a Block of Wood Without Chipping its ends?Place a piece of scrap wood next to it in the vice. Make sure that it is tight up against it and that they are level with one-another. If you get my drift.How do you Plane a Block of Wood Without Chipping its ends?plane with the grain, or take MUCH less material off per stroke. Less than 1/16", smaller until it works 4 u.How do you Plane a Block of Wood Without Chipping its ends?Clamp a sacrificial piece of wood on the end.How do you Plane a Block of Wood Without Chipping its ends?
    if you are hand planing...work from middle out (with grain of course)...if using a self feeding plane, the hardest part is starting without putting a slight knick but not impossible if you feed flat and straight (use a large table BEFORE the plane to help feed straight to start...and always, plane in very very small increments. By the way, you should cut to length AFTER you plane, not before and then this is not an issue

    Is a plane ticket the only proof that I will exit the USA when applying for a B2 American Visa?

    I plan to spend a month in America, followed by 5 Months in Canada on a canadian work visa, then travel back over to america for another 3 months before flying to England. But I will be crossing the american/canadian border in a car. And I don't have evidence to support my promises of leaving the country when I enter the first time (like a plane ticket). Is there other ways of proving this?Is a plane ticket the only proof that I will exit the USA when applying for a B2 American Visa?You don't have a job waiting for you at home? A house payment? Car payment? Family? All these things can be used as "proof" that you're coming home.
