美国航空本周将针对乘客携带登机用于电子设备的充电宝出台新限制规定。

该航空公司向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻透露,从本周五起,美国航空乘客仅可携带两块充电宝,且在航班上使用时必须让机组人员能够看到。不使用时,充电宝必须放在乘客伸手可及的机舱区域内,不得放入头顶行李架。

美国航空此次调整政策,缘于今年商用客机上发生的近20起锂电池安全事件。根据美国联邦航空管理局(FAA)的数据,2025年全美共发生近100起此类电池事件,多数涉及电池组和电子烟设备。

“我们深知乘客依赖充电宝在行程中为电子设备续航。为保障机上安全,同时确保乘客仍能在旅途中为设备充电,美国航空要求乘客在飞行期间将此类设备放在随手可及的位置。”该航空公司在给哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的声明中表示,“此外,新规定还对乘客可携带登机的充电宝数量及其瓦时容量作出限制。”

西南航空近期也调整了充电宝携带政策,将每位乘客的携带数量限制为一块。

美国航空的允许范围是什么?

  • 美国航空乘客最多可携带两块充电宝,每块容量不得超过100瓦时
  • 航班全程中,充电宝必须处于可见状态或乘客伸手可及的位置
  • 充电宝不得存放在头顶行李架内,也不得在机上充电

航空公司的新规定适用于可连接笔记本电脑、智能手机等电子设备的外置充电宝。部分配备内置锂离子电池充电端口的行李箱也将纳入新指南的监管范围。

American Airlines this week will introduce new restrictions on portable chargers that passengers can bring on flights for their electronic devices.

Starting Friday, American Airlines customers may carry only two power banks, which must be visible to airline personnel while in use on flights. When not in use, the chargers must be within a passenger’s reach on the aircraft and may not be stowed in an overhead bin, the airline told CBS News.

American Airlines is introducing the policy change after nearly two dozen lithium battery incidents on flights operated by commercial airlines this year. In 2025, nearly 100 such battery incidents occurred, mostly involving battery packs and vape devices, according to FAA data.

“We know our customers rely on portable chargers to keep devices powered throughout their journey. To support safety on board while ensuring our customers continue to have the ability to charge when on the go, American is requiring customers to keep these devices easily accessible during flight,” the airline said in a statement to CBS News. “Additionally, new limits also apply to the number of portable chargers customers can bring onboard and their watt-hour capacity.”

Southwest Airlines also recently changed its policy on battery packs, limiting customers to one per customer.

What does American Airlines allow?

  • American Airlines passengers are limited to two portable chargers, each of which may not exceed a capacity of 100 watt-hours
  • Portable chargers must be visible or within reach for the duration of the flight
  • The chargers may not be stored in overhead bins or recharged aboard aircraft

The carrier’s new rules apply to external power banks that can be plugged into electronic devices, such as laptops or smartphones. Some suitcases also feature built-in charging ports powered by lithium-ion batteries, which also would fall under the new guidelines.
