Show Notes

Southwest Airlines introduces new rules on portable battery chargers, effective April 20th, to enhance flight safety. Passengers can only carry one lithium charger, visible and not stowed in overhead bins or checked bags. This move follows FAA reports on battery incidents, aiming to prevent smoke, fires, and overheating. No bag searches or confiscations are planned; reminders will be given during booking and at the gate.
