Allowances for more that one passenger must not be combined into one or more packages.
- Low Calibre Ammunition. All ammunition must be checked-in and carried in the cargo hold of the aircraft with the express approval of Air Europa and the remaining carriers, if any, involved in the carriage of the passenger.
All such ammunition must be of low calibre and to be used for sporting purposes only, excluding any ammunition fitted with incendiary and/or explosive charges, which air carriage is strictly forbidden.

See subchapter 07.25: Wheelchairs.
D). Camping Stoves and Fuel Containers that have contained a Flammable Liquid Fuel
With the approval of Air Europa, as checked baggage only, camping stoves and fuel containers for camping stoves that have contained a flammable liquid fuel may be carried provided the fuel tank of the camping stove, and/or fuel container has been completely drained of all liquid fuel and action has been taken to nullify the danger.
To nullify the danger, the empty fuel tank and/or container must be allowed to drain for at least 1 hour, the fuel tank and/or container must then be left uncapped for a minimum of 6 hours to allow any residual fuel to evaporate. Alternative methods, such as adding cooking oil to the fuel tank and/or container to elevate the flash point of any residual liquid above the flash point of flammable liquid and then emptying the fuel tank and/or container, are equally acceptable.
The fuel tank and/or container must then have the cap securely fastened and be wrapped in an absorbent material such as paper towel and placed in a polyethylene or equivalent bag. The top of the bag must then to be sealed or gathered and closed with an elastic band or twine.
Note: Provided the above cleaning method is followed, the fuel stove or container can be classified as non hazardous. However to control the carriage of these items, they are listed in TABLE I (see: Normative reference”) shown in next pages.
