Turkey’s flagship carrier Turkish Airlines on Friday said it has
banned Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 smartphones from all of its flights with
immediate effect after reports of fire risk.
“Samsung Galaxy Note 7 devices can no longer be transported on
person, in carry-on baggage, in checked bags or as air cargo on all Turkish
Airlines flights with immediate effect,” the company said in a warning note to
passengers on its website.
The airline did not detail the reasons for the ban, but it comes
after reports of exploding batteries and fires, which have led to numerous
injuries.
