13.2 Advice for Travelling by Air with Li-Ion Batteries
Li-Ion batteries cannot be transported in the hold unless attached to a
camera. Spare Li-Ion batteries MUST be carried in your hand luggage.
YOU CAN carry-on up to 20 spare Li-Ion batteries that have
capacities of 100Wh or less, however, the operator is the final
arbiter.
In addition YOU CAN fly with two Li-Ion batteries that have
capacities greater than 100Wh, but less than 160Wh, with the
approval of the operator.
YOU CANNOT fly with Li-Ion batteries that have capacities greater
than 160Wh. These are FORBIDDEN from passenger aircraft, unless a
state exemption has beenobtained (ie CAA/FAA operator).
Batteries DO NOT need to be discharged to 30% state of charge for
transport as personal luggage, this is a requirement of cargo
shipments only.
It is advisable to keep the batteries in separate plastic bags and to
bring with you copies of the UN test certificate and UN test report.
Since the interpretation and application of regulations may vary with
each aviation company, PAG advises that you contact the carrier prior
to travelling.
