Petition Action

Revise current restrictions on banning electrical devices on flights.

Petition Details

We the undersigned call upon HM Government to revise restrictions on electrical devices on flights from Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia and Saudi. These restrictions ban passengers from carrying laptops, tablets and other electrical devices as hand luggage for safety concerns.

The restrictions put in place suggest a stance of international discrimination and HM Government needs to enforce a blanket ban across all flights, from all destinations into the UK, or drop all restrictions all together. Since these proposed restrictions are now in the public domain, individuals concerned with terror activity are likely to choose alternate flights.
