Royal Jordanian to enforce ban starting Friday

Jordan's national carrier says it will begin to restrict most electronics equipment, including laptops, on direct flights to the US, in line with new rules set by the US Department of Homeland Security, starting Friday.

 

Royal Jordanian flies from the Jordanian capital of Amman to New York, Chicago and Detroit.

 

Homeland Security announced Tuesday that passengers on US-bound flights at 10 airports in the Middle East and North Africa will not be permitted to keep electronics bigger than a cellphone in their carry-ons and will have to check them with their luggage.

 

The airlines have until early Saturday to implement the rules or face being barred from flying to the US.
