(MENAFN- Bangladesh Monitor)

Singapore: Passengers flying with Singapore Airlines will no longer be allowed to charge portable power banks via onboard USB ports or use power banks to charge their personal devices during the flight.

This new policy will take effect on April 1, 2025, the airline recently announced.

Power banks will only be allowed to be carried in cabin baggage on all SIA flights and are not permitted in checked baggage.

Customers can bring power banks with a capacity of up to 100Wh without special approval, while those between 100Wh and 160Wh require airline approval.

These power banks are classified as lithium batteries as per the International Air Transport Association's (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations which the SIA Group complies with, the airline further stated.
