carry-on baggage. McMurdo always
recommends declaring the PLB to airline staff
at check in, in the same way you would for a
laptop PC or video camera.
As air cargo;
These products contain small lithium metal
batteries. Due to the overall low level of
lithium content they are not restricted as air
cargo under IATA SP 188 - PI 970, always
check with the carrier concerned for any
additional restrictions that could apply.
