FAA Issues Samsung Note 7 Guidance

October 11, 2016

The US FAA has advised airline passengers to power down all Samsung Galaxy Note 7 phones, including those recently replaced.

The Federal Aviation Administration statement “urges passengers onboard aircraft to power down, and not use, charge, or stow in checked baggage, any Samsung Galaxy Note7 devices, including recalled and replacement devices”.

Samsung said it has now decided to halt production of the Note 7, after an earlier statement that it had requested outlets to stop selling the smartphone.
