October 05, (THEWILL) – Emirates Airlines has banned passengers from carrying pagers and walkie-talkies on its aircraft flying to, from or via Dubai.
“All Passengers travelling on flights to, from or via Dubai are prohibited from transporting pagers and walkie-talkies in checked or cabin baggage. Such items found in passengers’ hand luggage or checked baggage will be confiscated by Dubai Police,” the airline said in a travel update on Friday night.
The ban comes weeks after over 37 people, including children, were killed following remote detonations in Lebanon. The twin explosion from pagers and walkie-talkies was blamed on Israel.
