The explosions of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 are not leaving anyone indifferent, to such an extent that Several airlines have begun to ban these devices on their flights. For now, there are three to which we do not doubt that many will be added throughout the week. Samsung officially confirmed the manufacturing flaw that made the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 explode while charging (or not), unexpectedly. In delicate places like airplanes, precautions should be maximized, especially when flight conditions can seriously affect the volatility of these devices. On the other hand, they are not the first to be banned, it already happened in its day with hoverboards.
That's right, almost all companies in the United States of America strictly prohibited hoverboards on flights, which caused quite a bit of discomfort among some travelers, some even celebrities. Well, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 has been put on the same blacklist by Qantas, Jeststar and Virgin Australia, the first three airlines that have decided to ban these devices to a certain limit.
The battery rampage is estimated to cost Samsung about $ 1.000 billion, meanwhile, it continues its fierce fight to request the return of possible affected devices to replace them with devices with guarantees not to explode.
We must emphasize that the shipment of the device is not prohibited, but that they must be shipped off and cannot be connected via USB to any entertainment or charging system inside the plane. You can safely carry your Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in your pocket. According to the FAA most likely all airlines in the United States of America also take the same precautions on their flights. It can become overly mediatic and serious if such a device explodes and causes chaos mid-flight.
