In an official statement Etihad Airways said, “Effective immediately, the removal of the restrictions allows passengers flying to the US to carry all laptops, tablets, and other electronic devices onto the aircraft, subject to enhanced security measures.
The new measures, announced yesterday, include enhanced overall passenger screening, heightened screening of personal electronic devices, increased security protocols around aircraft and in passenger areas, and expanded canine screening.
The US government is considering banning laptops from the passenger cabins on all international flights to and from the country, according to homeland security secretary John Kelly.
