At the moment no. Tablet ban only from certain middle eastern and high risk countries although there is a suggestion that this could be extended. Wouldn't take a laptop but would take the iPad. If both banned we can easily make do with the phones.

Reading this mornings e-news, there is talk of extending the ban to all flights/countries.
