However, if you ‘land’ yourself (that is, you go through passport control and the baggage hall), you will not be allowed to take those purchases back through security and so will have to pack them in your hold luggage.
Unfortunately i was given no option - instructions were to go out through pc & security , unfortunatley my baggage was transferred straight through so i couldn't put it in the hold luggage at Gatwick
- looks like i definitely won't be buying duty free again if i have a conecting flight from LGW or LHR back to Manchester
