The airline ban on Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 phone has continued to spread, with carriers in Australia, Asia and Europe placing the phone on a prohibited list.

It comes after reports that a number of the devices had caught fire, leading the US to ban the phone last week, according to the BBC.

Airlines to the US subsequently followed suit, but the bans are now understood to be spreading worldwide.

In addition Air Berlin, Dragonair and Virgin Australia have now implemented bans.
