Dear Passengers,

In light of recent incidents and concerns Samsung has raised about its Galaxy Note 7 devices, the transportation of Samsung Galaxy Note 7 phones in any checked baggage is prohibited.

If you own a Samsung Galaxy Note 7 and you are traveling:

  • Turn off the device.
  • Disconnect the device from any charging equipment.
  • Disable all applications that could inadvertently activate the phone (e.g. alarm clock).
  • Protect the power switch to prevent its unintentional activation.
  • Keep the device in your hand baggage or on your person (do not place it in your baggage which you give it for check-in).
  • Passengers are also reminded of the need to inform the cabin crew when a device is damaged, hot, produces smoke, is lost, or falls inside the seat.

Regards,

Turkish Airlines
