MOSCOW, Oct 1 (Bernama-Sputnik/RIA Novosti) -- UAE flag carrier Emirates will ban the use of all power banks on board its flights, effective Oct 1, 2025, the Dubai Media Office said, reported Sputnik/RIA Novosti.
"While all Emirates aircraft offer in-seat charging, the airline recommends customers fully charge their devices before flying, especially on long-haul flights," the media office said in a statement on Tuesday.
Emirates passengers are allowed to carry one power bank on board, but it cannot be used to charge devices, the statement read, adding that power banks are also now prohibited from being placed in the overhead bins.
