How to fly with your straighteners
Airline approval is required if you're travelling with a battery-powered heat-producing product.
Cordless straighteners are in this category, so we recommend contacting your airline before you travel. Explain that your straightener has a Flight-ready feature which isolates the heaters from the battery, to meet ICAO regulations.
Whether you have a Two-pin or a Four-pin Flight-ready tag, we have easy to follow steps to help get your Straightener Flight ready.
