U.S. and European officials Wednesday discussed applying the U.S.'s in-flight ban on laptops and tablets to planes from Europe, The Associated Press reported.

The Washington Post reported Monday that President Trump disclosed to top Russian officials highly classified information about terror plots involving the use of laptops on flights.

The meeting aimed to “create a consultation, create a sharing of information,” a European diplomat told the AP.

The White House has defended the president's decision to share this intelligence with the Russians as "wholly appropriate." European Union officials reportedly said they have yet to be briefed on the new intelligence.

The ban would throw a logistical wrench into the travel experience for many business travelers, who use laptops and other devices to work throughout their flights. More than 400 daily flights travel between Europe and North America, totaling as many as 65 million travelers each year.

The ban would extend its current measures from the one instituted in March, which mostly banned devices on Middle Eastern flights.

Homeland Security officials briefed executives from the three top U.S. airlines — American, Delta and United — about the ban last week.
