Whereas:

(1)

The restrictions on liquids, aerosols and gels carried by passengers arriving on flights from third countries and transferring at Union airports create certain operational difficulties at those airports and cause inconvenience to the passengers concerned.

(2)

Commission Regulation (EU) No 358/2010 of 23 April 2010 amending Regulation (EU) No 185/2010 of 4 March 2010 laying down detailed measures for the implementation of the common basic standards on aviation security (2) provides for exemptions to permit the carriage by passengers of liquids, aerosols and gels obtained at certain airports situated in third countries. Those exemptions expire on 29 April 2011.

(3)

Those exemptions have facilitated operations and convenience as regards transfer passengers carrying liquids, aerosols and gels arriving on flights from third countries and transferring at Union airports, whilst maintaining a high level of aviation security. Provided that the conditions under which those exemptions were granted continue to be met at those airports in third countries, those benefits should be retained.

(4)

Commission Regulation (EU) No 185/2010 of 4 March 2010 laying down detailed measures for the implementation of the common basic standards on aviation security (3) should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for Civil Aviation Security set up by Article 19(1) of Regulation (EC) No 300/2008,
