EgyptAir Bans Potentially Explosive Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Phones

According to Al Ahram Online, travellers are no longer allowed to carry Samsung Galaxy Note 7 phones on multiple international airlines, including EgyptAir.  

This announcement was made after the United States government released an emergency order declaring that passengers should no longer carry Galaxy Note 7 phones on planes or in luggage. Samsung Electronics C.o Ltd has stopped manufacturing the Note 7, stating that it has posed a safety risk.

Anyone refusing to abide by the ban will undergo criminal prosecution.
