Powerbank on the plane - these rules apply

If you plan to take a powerbank with you on the plane to charge your smartphone or tablet, you should find out about the currently applicable rules beforehand. In which cases it is allowed to take a powerbank on the plane, we explain in this article.

On the plane: this is how a powerbank works

To charge your smartphone on the go, you can use a powerbank. This is an energy storage device that has a more or less large battery. If you have fully charged your powerbank at home, you can connect end devices, such as smartphone or tablet, via USB cable to this and charge.

Under these conditions you may use a powerbank on the plane

If you have a long flight ahead of you and want to avoid that the battery of your phone is completely empty during the trip, the use of a powerbank is possible. However, you are only allowed to take a powerbank on the plane under certain conditions.
  1. So, a powerbank may only be transported in your hand luggage and not in a suitcase, which is located in the baggage compartment. This is because each powerbank contains a lithium battery, which poses an increased fire risk.
  2. If you still want to transport a powerbank in a piece of luggage, you must check it in as dangerous goods. Bitte beachten Sie, dass dies nicht nur sehr teuer ist, sondern bei manchen Fluggesellschaften auch nicht angeboten wird.
  3. Auch wenn Sie Ihre Powerbank im Handgepäck mitnehmen, gibt es, abhängig vom Flughafen und der Airline, Beschränkungen. So ist die Anzahl an Powerbanks oftmals auf eine pro Person beschränkt und diese darf nicht mehr als 100 Wh haben.
