"Apple recently announced a recall of 15-inch MacBook Pro models sold between September 2015 and February 2017, citing defective batteries that could overheat and pose a fire safety risk. Therefore, as a safety precaution, travellers will not be permitted to carry these MacBook Pro models as checked or carry-on baggage on Emirates flights unless the battery has been replaced," Emirates said.
The airline also advised passengers to check if their device is affected.
Last month, Etihad Airways joined Qantas Airways, Virgin Australia, Singapore Airlines and Thai Airways in banning the carriage of MacBook Pro computers in checked luggage.
"Guests may still carry MacBook Pro laptops on flights, but only in cabin baggage. The laptops subject to the manufacturer's recall must remain switched off throughout the flight. Charging of the devices will not be permitted in flight," Etihad earlier told Khaleej Times.
"This checked luggage restriction is consistent with the actions of many airlines worldwide. The safety of our guests and crew is of paramount importance to Etihad Airways," the Abu Dhabi-based airline underlined.
Etihad Cargo has also banned the bulk shipment of these computers.
Apple has announced a world-wide safety-related recall program. It has determined that, in a limited number of older generation 15-inch MacBook Pro units, the battery may overheat and pose a fire safety risk.
Affected units were sold primarily between September 2015 and February 2017 and eligibility for the free battery replacement is determined by the product serial number.
