What to check before buying
Plan charging around the time before boarding, connections and arrival: easyJet does not permit power-bank use or recharging onboard.
| Concern |
Buying check |
Who this matters to |
| Cabin packing and battery rating |
Check for a legible Wh rating on the unit and a way to protect it against short circuits. Keep it in cabin baggage; easyJet permits no more than two per passenger. |
If my bag might go into the hold, I need to be able to remove and carry my power bank in the cabin. About 40% of consumers put compliant packing and clear battery identification first. |
| Connector and cable |
Match the bank's port or built-in cable to your device; check whether you need a separate cable. |
When I need to charge between flights, bringing the wrong connector would make the bank little use. For about 30% of consumers, cable and connector simplicity is the primary need. |
| Reserve and output |
Compare the exact unit's Wh rating and stated output with the devices you plan to charge. Check carrier requirements before choosing a higher-capacity unit. |
If I have several devices to charge after landing, I need to choose reserve capacity and output for those devices, not for charging in the air. That is the main concern for about 30% of consumers. |

These portable power banks offer different capacities and cable arrangements for charging around an easyJet journey, rather than during the flight. Check the actual unit's Wh label and current carrier rules before travelling.

Frequently asked questions
Can I put a power bank in checked luggage on easyJet?
No. easyJet requires power banks to travel in cabin baggage, not checked luggage. If your cabin bag is going into the hold, remove the bank and carry it into the cabin.
Can I charge my phone from a power bank during an easyJet flight?
No. easyJet prohibits using power banks to charge devices onboard and prohibits recharging the banks there. Plan to charge before boarding, during a connection or after landing.
What watt-hour rating should I check?
Read the Wh rating on the actual power bank. International Air Transport Association passenger guidance requires operator approval for spare batteries above 100Wh through 160Wh and treats those above 160Wh as cargo under its dangerous-goods rules. Confirm easyJet's current requirements for your bank rather than treating those general thresholds as an easyJet acceptance decision.
What if another airline operates my connecting flight?
Check the power-bank and cabin-baggage rules of every operating airline on the itinerary. easyJet's two-bank limit and onboard-use prohibition do not establish the other airline's policy; GOV.UK also advises passengers to check relevant hand-luggage restrictions.
What happens to a removable power bank in checked smart luggage?
For smart luggage checked into the hold, easyJet says to disconnect and remove the lithium battery or power bank at Bag Drop and take it into the cabin. Protect exposed terminals against short circuits.
