Power banks have become an essential travel companion, but starting April 1, Singapore Airlines (SIA) and Scoot will ban their use and charging in-flight, citing safety concerns.

This decision follows a series of incidents involving overheating lithium batteries, including a Scoot flight fire in Taiwan and a Batik Air cabin smoke incident.

With airlines like Thai Airways, AirAsia, and South Korean carriers implementing similar restrictions, this raises pressing questions.
