Federal safety officials have banned some Apple laptops from airline flights.

 

联邦航空管理局禁止部分苹果笔记本上飞机。

 

The Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement Wednesday that it alerted airlines last month about the recall involving batteries for some Apple MacBook Pro¹ laptops.

 

Under FAA policy, some potentially dangerous items including lithium batteries can't be carried on board or placed in checked baggage if they are under a safety recall. The item must be repaired, replaced or made safe by a manufacturer-approved method before going on a plane.

 

On its website, Apple says a "limited number" of 15-inch MacBook Pros² sold mostly between September 2015 and February 2017 have batteries that might overheat and pose a fire risk. Apple says it's replacing affected³ batteries for free.
