An Air France flight to the Caribbean returned to Paris last week after a passenger could not locate their cellphone, taking the “precautionary measure” to avoid a safety hazard if the unattended phone overheated. It was the airline’s second Caribbean-bound flight to turn around because of a phone since early February as the aviation industry grapples with the risk of fires sparked by lithium batteries.
