Here Are The Best Flight-Safe Power Banks In 2024

Power banks give us a way to liberate ourselves from the shackles of power outlets and keep our devices powered on the go. The only problem is that “on the go” also includes when you're on an airplane, and you can't take just any type of battery onboard one of those.

You can only bring power banks with a total rating under 100Wh onboard a plane with you. All the choices on the list before fall into that category, while still maximizing size as much as possible. If you've got a smaller power bank, you can certainly take that onto a plane, so we won't be focusing on those ones.

Best Overall

INIU BI-B64 Power Bank (27,000 mAh)

$71.99

This 27,000 mAh INIU charger wins overall for multiple reasons. First off, it maxes out the capacity you can bring on a plane. Second, you get two USB-C ports (45W and 140W) and one 18W USB-A port. Then, there's a screen to help you keep track of how much battery is left and how much longer you need to charge for.

Best Premium

Anker Prime Power Bank (27,650 mAh)

$124.99

This power bank pushes just past 27,000 mAh, but Anker says it's 99.54 Wh, which makes it flight-safe. You get two USB-C ports of which you can get up to 140W from a single port at a time, along with a USB-A port, for 250W when combined. Plus, the companion app and device display provide so much more info.

Best Budget

Anker A1647 Power Bank (20,000 mAh)

$33.74

If you want to travel as light as possible, this Anker power bank is the way to go, especially with a built-in USB-C cable, with a max of 22.5W of output, saving you even more space. You get one USB-A and one USB-C port in addition to that, and a little battery percentage display.

UGREEN Nexode Power Bank (20,000 mAh)

$54.39

This portable 100W power bank gives you the ability to charge three devices at once, with one of the two USB-C ports capable of delivering 100W at once and the other giving 30W. The USB-A port isn't shabby either, with 22.5W output. The power bank itself supports 65W fast charging.

Baseus Blade HD Power Bank (20,000 mAh)

$79.98

This power bank is called Blade because of its unusual form factor. Instead of being a brick, it's flatter, like a very small, square laptop. For some people, this is more desirable, as it can fit into a laptop sleeve easier. It comes with 20,000 mAh of capacity, 100W total output across four ports.

Buy on Amazon

Baseus 65W Power Bank (20,000 mAh)

$59.99

I'll get it out of the way. This charges itself via micro USB, which is a bummer. Apart from that, you get two 30W USB-A ports and a 65W USB-C port, and a nice metallic design. The little screen on it can tell you how much juice is left too.

Buy on Amazon

PowerAdd Pro Power Bank (27,000 mAh)

$79.99

The PowerAdd Pro is the way to get if the Best Premium option is too expensive for you. It's got the same two USB-C ports with a USB-A port, though a lower total output of 140W. It's also got a screen that can show you how much battery is left and how much power is going through each port, all at the same time.

Buy on Amazon

Charmast W2002C Power Bank (26,800 mAh)

$27.99

This power bank is crazy affordable for its capacity. It comes with four outputs, though only one is a USB-C port. It also has two inputs, which is interesting; one is micro USB and the other is Lightning. There's no fast charging though (a 15W max), which explains the price, so keep that in mind.

Take Your Power In The Air With You

You don't need to overthink the TSA regulations on exactly how much battery you can bring with you. This list has eight amazing power banks, every single one of which is safe for taking onboard an airplane with you.

Of them, my favorite is the INIU power bank because it hits the maximum capacity, comes with a lot of speed, and won't make your bank account hyperglycemic. After that, I have to give props to the Anker Prime power bank, as it provides the most total power and that display is a major perk over others.
