Before you pack
- Count every loose/spare drone battery, not only the standard pack.
- Keep spare lithium batteries protected against short circuit and in cabin baggage.
- Add power banks separately because 2026 rules can be stricter than ordinary spare-battery limits.
- If your itinerary has a connection, check every operating carrier — the stricter segment can control the practical result.
