The airport says the 100 ml limit and 1-litre bag still apply at any checkpoint without CT scanners, and news reports say one transfer checkpoint in the Terminal 2 satellite is not converted until 2027. The English pages still carry an old 100 ml photo caption and one line calling 2 litres a total, but the German page clearly says 2 litres per container.
Medicines, baby food and duty-free in sealed bags are exempt from the 100 ml limit. Rules vary by airport, so check your return and connecting airports too.
