The Trump administration has declared that passengers on nine airlines flying direct flights to the U.S. from airports in eight countries will be prevented from taking most electronic devices larger than a cellphone (such as tablets, portable DVD players, laptops and cameras) into the main cabin. Instead, they must be in checked baggage. The airlines are Royal Jordanian Airlines, Egypt Air, Turkish Airlines, Saudi Arabian Airlines, Kuwait Airways, Royal Air Maroc, Qatar Airways, Emirates and Etihad Airways. The airports are in Cairo; Istanbul; Kuwait City; Doha, Qatar; Casablanca, Morocco; Amman, Jordan; Riyadh and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia; and Dubai and Abu Dhabi in United Arab Emirates. The ban is said to be indefinite and is inspired by concerns of explosives hidden in computer devices. Euronews
