Confidence
Airline official
Malaysia Airlines is tracked from its official additional-restrictions power-bank section: power banks must be carried in cabin baggage only, are not permitted in checked baggage, are capped at two per passenger, cannot be used or charged throughout the flight, must stay with the passenger and not in overhead compartments, must be kept in a separate bag or protective pouch, are permitted up to 100 Wh, require airline approval from more than 100 Wh up to 160 Wh, and are strictly prohibited above 160 Wh.
Each passenger may carry a maximum of two power banks.
Watt-hour limit
Power banks up to 100 Wh are permitted; more than 100 Wh and up to 160 Wh is permitted subject to airline approval; exceeding 160 Wh is strictly prohibited.
Carry-on
Power banks are permitted as carry-on items; during flight they may be stored in a carry-on bag under the seat or in the seat pocket in front of the passenger, and must not be placed in overhead compartments.
Checked baggage
Power banks must be carried in cabin baggage only and are not permitted in checked baggage.

Common questions for this exact trip
Is this a guarantee at the airport?
No. This is an informational verdict based on published sources. Airline and security staff retain final authority.
Why can the same power bank get different answers by country or airline?
Power-bank rules combine global battery limits with country overlays, airline policies, storage rules, and recall notices.
When should I re-check this route?
Re-check close to departure, especially when the trip involves China, Thailand, Korea, a recalled model, or a battery near a capacity limit.
