Properly manifested, I believe that they secure them in a stainless container. It might even have fire suppression in it if I understood the pilot correctly.
Good to know that keeping a pallet of batteries in a stainless container should be the normal procedure. A few articles about MH370 seemed to imply that the cargo hold area was a whole was relying on a fire suppression system, but that maybe it would not be enough to protect against noxious fumes. Let us hope that the airlines and shipping companies are following good practices.Properly manifested, I believe that they secure them in a stainless container.

Price Price Price. Safety be damned. I want it cheap and I want it now!I had breakfast a couple of weeks ago with a FedEx pilot that had a lithium battery fire in the cargo hold of his plane.
Doubt that he would be amused.
You can still ship lithium batteries, they just ned to be shipped and declared correctly.
