Starting April 15, a new rule out of Singapore could catch many travellers off guard — you’ll only be allowed to carry two power banks in your hand luggage. Any extras? You’ll have to throw them away before boarding.

The move, announced by the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore, follows updated global safety guidelines from the International Civil Aviation Organization aimed at reducing the risk of lithium battery fires mid-flight.

Why have power banks become a focus of aviation safety regulations? And will limiting the number of power banks on flights actually make flying safer?

On The Big Story, Debbie Yong speaks with Dr Teo Tee Hui, Senior Lecturer in Engineering Product Development at the Singapore University of Technology and Design, to find out more.

Market activity held relatively firm, with S$1.45 billion in value turnover, but sentiment stayed fragile as attention turned to ongoing discussions around a potential 45-day ceasefire involving the US, Iran and regional mediators. With no clear outcome and a tight 24-48 hour window, markets, particularly oil, are bracing for possible volatility depending on how events unfold.

Oil prices have so far shown measured reactions, suggesting that recent tensions may already be partially priced in, supported by existing inventory buffers. However, if the situation drags on or escalates, these buffers could begin to erode, potentially triggering sharper moves in energy markets.

On Market View, Sean Cheong speaks to Kelvin Wong, Senior Analyst, OANDA, to unpack the latest market movements.
