Is the "laptop ban" for flights from Turkey to the UK in force?

score:3

Accepted answer

Yes, these restrictions are still in effect.

For reference see this UK Government Website, and this British Airways website.

(Yes, those are the same 2 websites listed in your question - but they are both about as definitive as you can get that the restrictions are still in place!)

The restrictions do not apply to Turkish Airlines and Pegasus airlines as they have instigated additional screening measures which the UK government has approved (which is why you'll normally see these flights depart from a fixed few gates, such as gate 218 at IST)
