Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Phone Advisory
In light of advisories from various aviation regulatory bodies and concerns raised by Samsung about its Galaxy Note 7 smartphones, passengers are advised that these devices are prohibited on all Emirates flights. Passengers are requested not to bring them on board Emirates' flights in person, as well as in carry-on or checked-in baggage.


I'm currently on business in Africa with a return flight home through Dubai next week. I've already been in contact with Dubai Duty Free to return the Note 7 I bought from them. Anyone else just get screwed with this ban?
