Having an Apple AirTag or anything else with a lithium battery in your possession could mean you're not allowed to board your flight.
But there is one specific rule that isn't very commonly known, and could get you banned from your flight if you don't follow it.
But the Mirror reports that devices of this nature could actually mean your bag isn't allowed on the flight. Under current regulations, lithium batteries contained in the portable electronic devices, such as locating devices, should be taken as carry-on baggage rather than placed in the hold. Heathrow Airport and the UK Department of Transport denied being responsible for setting the rules, while a spokesperson for the CAA said it just enforces ICAO Technical Instructions.
Lithium batteries can cause problems on planes as they have potential to short circuit, sparking very hot fires that cannot be extinguished.
