Gadget Rules For Airports: Summer holidays are about to start. If you are planning to travel with your family and friends, then it is important to know the rules for carrying gadgets at the airport. By understanding these rules, you can avoid problems during check-in and security check at the airport.
Do not keep power bank in check in luggage
Power banks, batteries or battery-powered devices cannot be put in the large suitcase (check-in luggage). Most airlines and airports prefer you to put them in your smaller bag (carry-on luggage). However, you can remove the battery from the device and put the device in the large suitcase and the battery in the small bag. Also, power banks with more than 20000mAh power or more than 100Wh capacity cannot be carried on the plane.
Remove laptops, phones and more during security check
During airport security checks, laptops, smartphones and other electronic devices are screened in separate trays. So put your devices and their charging cables in the tray. Note that certain laptops and smartphones are not allowed on the plane.
Take out your smartwatch too
Airports and airlines allow you to put your smartwatch in your carry-on bag without any hassle, but yes, it will have to be placed in a separate tray during security check.
Take out the speakers too
Carrying TWS earbuds, headphones or portable speakers? These too will need to be placed in a separate tray and removed for screening during airport security check. Some airports and airlines may also ask you to remove the charging cable.
Keep the electric shaver or razor in the luggage bag
Electric shavers and razors are allowed at the airport. You can put them in your small bag (carry-on) or large suitcase (check-in). However, old-fashioned razor blades and disposable razors with detachable blades can only be put in a large suitcase. Note that airports may have special rules for these blades, such as a maximum number or size.
Camera equipment also
If you want to carry your professional camera with big lenses and tripod, then these may have to be checked separately at the airport. However, if your entire camera equipment can be fitted in a large suitcase (check-in) or small bag (carry-on) without the battery, then there may be no need for separate checking.
E-cigarettes not allowed
Electronic cigarettes are illegal in India, meaning you cannot take them with you to the airport. If you are found with these cigarettes, they can be confiscated and you may also face legal trouble.
