Lufthansa prva u Evropi zabranila punjače sa litijum-jonskom baterijama u avionima
Nemačka aviokompanija Lufthansa uvela je nova, znatno stroža pravila bezbednosti i postala prva evropska kompanija koja je zabranila korišćenje prenosnih punjača, takozvanih powerbankova, tokom leta. Odluka je doneta nakon niza incidenata u svetskom vazduhoplovstvu, u kojima su litijum-jonske baterije izazvale ozbiljne požare u putničkim avionima.
TL;DR
- Lufthansa has introduced stricter safety rules, banning the use and charging of power banks during flights.
- The decision stems from fire risks associated with lithium-ion batteries in portable chargers.
- Power banks must now be carried on the person, in seat pockets, or in hand luggage; they cannot be stored in overhead compartments.
- Passengers are prohibited from charging devices or power banks using onboard electrical outlets.
- Passengers can carry a maximum of two power banks with a capacity not exceeding 100 watt-hours.
- The rules apply to all Lufthansa Group airlines and are similar to measures taken by Singapore Airlines.
- Cabin crew are trained to enforce these new regulations.
