Comment on Can I pack a couple of laptops in checked baggage from Melbourne Airport?
dgriffith@aussie.zone 1 week agoThis is inaccurate. OP , look it up for your airline. You’ll find all the information you need for your particular circumstances in a handy guide on their website, because they very much want you to know.
In general though:
Devices containing batteries with less than 100Wh capacity can go in checked luggage as long as they are completely turned off and can’t be accidentally turned on. There are limits to how many, a suitcase full of laptops will be frowned upon.
Spare batteries (for eg power tools) need to go in carry-on and again, there are limits to how many.
Anything > 100Wh, like scooters or biiiiig powerbanks need special permission or are banned outright.
