The Federal Aviation Administration of the United States has now issued a recommendation to airlines, according to which these represent MacBookThey are a security risk and therefore should not be taken on board aircraft either as hand luggage or as cargo.

Almost immediately after the new safety guidelines were issued, four airlines – namely Total – banned Cargo Expertise, Thomas Cook Airlines, Air Italy and Air Transat – transport 15” MacBooků Pro sold from mid-2015 to February 2017 on board their aircraft. It is also very likely that other companies will follow suit and travel with the “fifteen” MacBooky Pro will also be banned, which could be very inconvenient for passengers. However, if they show documents confirming the replacement of the battery with a safe one, which Apple now performed completely free of charge, it probably should not be MacBookno problem on board.
Reported a battery problem Apple only in June of this year, although it concerns machines released between 2015 and 2017. Its solution is a new service program, thanks to which users with affected Macs will receive completely new and, above all, safe batteries at authorized service centers. However, it is necessary to take into account that the replacement will take days or weeks, not hours, due to the complexity and busyness of the service.

Recommendation for a ban on transport MacBooků Pro It is valid until further notice and, as mentioned above, it is primarily up to the airlines how they will handle it. So if you are planning to travel with this machine, we recommend that you check with them before your flight.eventCarefully check whether your carrier has not already blacklisted this machine and will not refuse to transport it by accident.

Sorry, but they should have replaced it piece by piece. They are more work machines, so one cannot wait days or weeks. Dell doesn't offer next-day repair for nothing.
ProThe problem is, however, that they would have to give people not models, because they certainly don't have that many old ones.
Exactly! In the middle of last month I had to give MacBook Pro for repair and almost a month later the spare parts still haven't arrived! So a week later I went to get another one MacBook Probecause I couldn't wait any longer for the repair. Thanks to this, I will have one machine in reserve, but it's turned upside down from the point of view that, for example, Dell can handle it without any problems until the next day.
aj apple that's what it's called apple care+ only those who have a legal guarantee are charged for this

Recently, the locals here were smart sheep, laughing at Samsung.... This is called karma :-D
That's great. Apple they will replace the battery and it will take weeks. And in the meantime like what? This is not my problem but the manufacturer's and I want an adequate replacement.
That was a mockery of Samsung with the Note, but it had the decency to buy the phones back.
This is not really how I imagine a premium product and the services associated with it.
