This is incorrect, only spare batteries aren't allowed in checked baggage, computers are fine. From your second link [1]: > Lithium ion batteries installed in a personal electronic device can be transported as checked or carry on baggage. Lithium ion batteries not installed in a device (spares) must be in carry-on baggage and no more than two (2) spares between 100 and 160 watt hours are allowed.
