As of January 2015, lithium metal batteries are no longer allowed to be transported as cargo on passenger aircraft. Refer http://www.icao.int/safety/Dangerous...P.002.1.en.pdf
That's an ICAO proposal that forbids the shipment of battery-only shipments of lithium metal batteries. It doesn't ban the shipment of lithium batteries shipped in or with equipment.
CX already has an embargo on lithium battery-only shipments.
