- British Airways has updated its conditions of carriage to tighten restrictions on onboard photography and filming.
- Passengers are now prohibited from filming, photographing, or live-streaming British Airways staff without their explicit consent.
- Non-compliance with these new rules could result in passengers being removed from a flight, banned from the airline, or reported to authorities for criminal prosecution.
- The restrictions are expected to apply to various recording devices, including Meta glasses and GoPros.
- While most airlines generally allow photography if passenger privacy is respected, the UK Civil Aviation Authority states that cabin crew and the captain have the final say on rules if safety is not endangered.
