In light of recent incidents and concerns raised by Samsung about its Galaxy Note 7 devices, the Irish Aviation Authority strongly advises passengers to power down and refrain from charging these devices on board aircraft. Passengers are also asked not to stow them in any checked-in baggage. This applies to all Samsung Galaxy Note 7 devices, including recalled and replacement devices.
