Lufthansa Flight from Frankfurt to Lisbon Diverts to Lyon Due to Catching Power Bank

NOS27 September · 21:328 min ago

A Lufthansa flight traveling from Frankfurt to Lisbon diverted to Lyon after a power bank caught fire on board. The aircraft landed at 22:00, and passengers were relocated to hotels before being flown to their final destination the following day. This incident follows a similar event involving a KLM flight to Curaçao, where former director Camiel Eurlings' device caused burns. While KLM and Lufthansa prohibit using or charging power banks during flights, Transavia allows it. KLM is investigating the previous incident to determine if regulations need tightening.
