From January 1 2015, lithium metal batteries will no longer be able to travel in aircraft bellies, it is expected.
ICAO’s dangerous goods panel meeting last week in Montreal concluded with a recommendation that only lithium metal batteries packed or contained within equipment, and those carried by passengers in the cabin, can travel on passenger aircraft. Passengers were prohibited from checking-in loose batteries in 2008.
