The US and UK are banning laptops from cabin baggage on flights from certain countries in the Middle East and North Africa as well as Turkey.

The US ban on electronic devices larger than a smartphone is being imposed as an anti‑terrorist precaution.

It covers inbound flights on nine airlines operating out of 10 airports.

Phones are not affected.

The UK has announced that passengers would not be able to carry laptops in cabin luggage on inbound direct flights from Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia.
