Rules for the transportation of lithium batteries

— must be carried as hand luggage
— They should not be charged on board the aircraft at all stages of the flight;
— They should not be used to charge or power other portable electronic devices on board the aircraft;
— One passenger can carry no more than two charging cans;
— They must be securely protected to avoid the possibility of a short circuit (by placing them in the original packaging of the manufacturer or isolating the terminals in another way, for example, wrapping insulating tape or placing each charging bank in a separate plastic bag or protective case);
— не должны находится в ручной клади, размещаемой на багажных полках;
— They must be in hand luggage under the seat in front of the seat, or in a pocket on the back of the chairs.

Transportation of electronic smoking devices is allowed in the passenger's belongings subject to the following conditions:
— The electronic smoking device is intended for personal use;
— If electronic smoking devices are powered by lithium batteries, each battery must comply with the following restrictions: the lithium content in lithium-metal batteries does not exceed 2 g. or the specific power of lithium-ion batteries does not exceed 100 Wh;
— The spare batteries for the smoking device must be individually protected to avoid a short circuit (by placing them in the original packaging or by another method of isolating the terminals).

Examples:
— mobile phones;
— video cameras;
— watches;
— MP3 players;
— laptops;
— portable medical devices;
— external chargers (Power bank).

In carry-on baggage:
— permitted inside the equipment;
— spare batteries must be separately protected in such a way as to avoid the possibility of a short circuit, spontaneous actuation and damage to the device (for example, by placing them in their original packaging, or wrapping open poles with insulating tape, or placing each battery in a separate plastic bag or protective bag).

In checked baggage:
— must be located inside the equipment;
— measures must be taken to prevent their spontaneous activation;
— carrying spare batteries (not inserted into the equipment) is prohibited. — the transportation of spare batteries (not inserted into the equipment) is prohibited, spare batteries are transported only as hand luggage;
— in portable devices capable of generating large amounts of heat when turned on, which can lead to a fire, the batteries and heating elements of such equipment must be isolated by removing the heating element, battery, or other elements from the device;
— must be completely turned off (not in standby or low-power mode);
— the lithium content in lithium-metal batteries is not more than 0.3 g, or the specific power of lithium-ion batteries in watt-hours is not more than 2.7 Wh.

Examples:
— laptops with increased resource;
— professional audio and video equipment;
— portable medical devices;
— external chargers (Power bank).

In carry-on baggage:
— airline permission required;
— permitted inside equipment;
— measures must be taken to prevent their inadvertent detonation;
— spare batteries must be separately protected so as to prevent short circuiting (e.g. by placing them in their original packaging, or by wrapping insulating tape over exposed terminals, or by placing each battery in a separate plastic bag or protective package);
— no more than two spare lithium-metal batteries may be carried by one passenger.

In checked baggage:
— airline permission is required;
— measures must be taken to prevent their spontaneous activation and damage to the device;
— the transportation of spare batteries (not inserted into the equipment) is prohibited, spare batteries are transported only as hand luggage;
— in portable devices capable of generating large amounts of heat when turned on, which can lead to a fire, the batteries and heating elements of such equipment must be isolated by removing the heating element, battery, or other elements from the device;
— they must be completely turned off (not in standby or low-power mode);
— the lithium content in lithium-metal batteries is not more than 0.3 g, or the specific power of lithium-ion batteries in watt-hours is not more than 2.7 Wh.

Examples:
— industrial equipment included in some electric and hybrid vehicles;
— mobile devices and mopeds.

Prohibited from carriage in baggage or carry-on baggage
Must be presented for carriage as "dangerous goods" in accordance with the Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air (DOC 9284 AN\905).

Examples:
— unicycles;
— segways;
— hoverboards;
— gyro scooters;
— electric scooters.

Based on IATA recommendations, air transportation of the specified vehicles on ALROSA Airlines JSC flights is possible as checked baggage, provided that there is no lithium battery in the vehicle.
A lithium battery removed from the vehicle is allowed for transportation only in hand luggage, provided that the battery power does not exceed the established norm - 160 Wh.
A small-sized vehicle with a built-in (non-removable) lithium battery may be transported as "dangerous cargo" through the airport cargo terminal.

Wheelchairs or similar mobility aids, powered by lithium-ion batteries with a specific power of more than 160 Wh, used by passengers with reduced mobility due to a special health condition, age or temporary conditions (e.g., a broken leg).

Conditions for authorizing special transportation of a mobility aid/wheelchair:
1. Airline permission is required;
2. Mobility aids must be transported in such a way that they are protected from damage caused by the movement of baggage, mail, cargo;
3. The aircraft commander must be informed of the location of lithium-ion batteries;
4. If the battery is non-removable, it can be carried as checked baggage provided that:
— the battery terminals are protected from short circuits (e.g. by means of a fence in the battery box);
— the battery is securely fastened in the mobility aid;
— the electrical circuits must be isolated.
5. If the mobility aid/wheelchair is designed so that it is possible for the user to remove the battery, then:
— the battery must be removed;
— batteries must be carried in the passenger compartment;
— batteries must be protected from short circuits by insulating the terminal (by taping);
— removed batteries must be protected from damage (placed in protective packaging);
— the battery capacity must not exceed 300 Wh;
— only one spare battery with a capacity of not more than 300 Wh, or two spare batteries, each of which does not exceed a capacity of 160 Wh, may be carried.
