Pack Batteries in Cabin Only | Manchester News

Summer travel’s heating up—and so are the risks if you pack your electronics wrong. The Civil Aviation Authority is sounding the alarm: power banks, vapes, and spare batteries must stay in your carry-on, not checked luggage. Why? Because lithium batteries can overheat and ignite in the cargo hold, causing delays and safety hazards. With battery incidents nearly doubling this summer, experts urge travelers to keep these items with them, inspect devices for swelling or heat, and buy gear only from trusted sources. A simple rule: pack smart, stay safe, and avoid costly disruptions. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
