Emirates will implement new safety measures prohibiting the use of power banks on flights, effective 1 October. This initiative arises from concerns over potential fires, explosions, and toxic gas emissions associated with these devices. Passengers can still carry one power bank onboard, as long as it has capacity rating information and is stored correctly, in the seat pocket or under the seat. The existing ban on storing power banks in checked luggage remains in place to enhance safety onboard.
Passengers on Emirates flights will soon be banned from using phone power banks due to concerns about fires, explosions, and toxic gases. The new safety measures take effect from 1 October.
Emirates will still allow customers to carry one power bank onboard, provided it has capacity rating information and is stored in designated areas, not overhead storage.
The device, while allowed onboard, must not be used in aircraft cabins due to fears of fire, explosions, and toxic gas emissions.
There is currently a ban on storing power banks in checked luggage, emphasizing ongoing safety concerns regarding these popular portable charger devices.
