iPad plot to down jets: Gadgets banned from cabin on flights
- Thread starter GAMETHEORY
- Start date
You’ll be affected if you’re flying to the U.S. from the 10 following airports:
Istanbul, Turkey; Dubai and Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates; Doha, Qatar; Amman, Jordan; Cairo, Egypt; Casablanca, Morocco; Jeddah and Riyadh in Saudi Arabia; Kuwait City, Kuwait.
… or if you’re flying non-stop to the U.S. on one of these nine airlines:
EgyptAir; Emirates; Etihad Airways; Kuwait Airways; Qatar Airways; Royal Air Maroc; Royal Jordanian; Saudia (Saudi Arabian Airlines); Turkish Airlines.
U.S. carriers do not fly from any of the affected airports, so they remain unaffected. In total, Homeland Security estimates the ban will affect about 50 flights a day bound for the United States.
What exactly is banned?
Laptops and larger electronics will be banned from being taken on board as carry-on luggage. Smartphones will be allowed, and Homeland Security says “approved medical devices may be brought into the cabin after additional screening.”

I'm still confused by this. If the devices have bombs in them, won't they still exploded below passengers in luggage on the plane.
