TL;DR
Southwest Airlines has announced a change to its power bank policy.
Passengers will only be allowed to bring one power bank onto the plane.
The airline plans to equip its fleet with in-seat power by the middle of next year.
As the number of rechargeable devices we take on flights continues to grow, so does the number of power banks. Unfortunately, that means the number of power bank-related fires on planes has also gone up. To minimize the potential of in-flight fires caused by power banks in the future, Southwest is adjusting its policy.
