Passengers to be limited to 2 power banks on all flightsBy Huang Yi-ching and Hollie Younger / Staff reporter, with staff writerAll aircraft passengers departing from Taiwan airports would be limited to two power banks per person from Wednesday next week, the Civil Aviation Administration (CAA) said yesterday. Passengers are also prohibited from placing power banks in checked baggage or using them to charge devices while in flight, the CAA said in a statement. People go through a security check at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport in an undated photograph. The change was announced after the International Civil Aviation Organization on Friday last week said that each passenger should be allowed to carry a maximum of two lithium battery power banks. China Airlines, EVA Airways, Uni Air and Mandarin Airlines implemented the new guidelines on Tuesday, while Starlux Airlines and Tiger Air followed suit on Wednesday.
