Yes. You can take all of the above with in your hand luggage for use on board the plane. However, you will usually be asked to remove earphones and turn off the above items for landing and take off.

Yes.
Can liquid milk be taken on board?
Yes, but it must be tasted by the accompanying passenger or bought airside.
Can baby milk cartons be taken on board?
In short the answer is yes, but you’d have to open the carton as the accompanying passenger must taste baby milk prior to boarding, which defeats the purpose of taking them.
We recommend you take your baby’s milk made up in their bottle or, if you prefer, take sterilised water (which will also need tasting) and powdered formula. Alternatively you can purchase the cartons airside.
