There is a legal problem with fluid ounces in international travel. Do you mean 
UK fluid ounces or US fluid ounces?  Once you are on an internal US flight, it 
is quite clear that they mean US fluid ounces..

Subject: [USMA:54087] Metric Size Limits on Airport Security Sign - BBC

 

My cell phone captured a couple of photographs (attached) this morning of a BBC 
television report about increased airport security. I notice that the sign 
displays size limits in milliliters only. I think the sign is intended for 
people entering the United States. Perhaps the sign makers concluded that 
ounces would only confuse most of their target audience.
