⚠️ NEW AIRLINE RULE: American Airlines is rolling out new restrictions on portable chargers starting May 1 amid growing in-flight safety concerns involving lithium-ion batteries.

Passengers will now be limited to TWO portable chargers, each no more than 100 watt-hours. Chargers must remain visible and within reach while in use, may NOT be stored in overhead bins, and cannot be recharged during flights.
