100 watt-hour limit on batteries, you must ask for permission to fly with anything larger and if it isn't installed in a device / it's a spare it must be in checked baggage.

The 13" MBP has a 54Whr battery, the 15" an 83Whr battery.

U.S. DOT: Spares, max 2, are forbidden in checked baggage.

Lines 7-8: https://www.phmsa.dot.gov/safe-travel/batteries

In your FAA document, page 2, line 3.

Note that, generally, batteries must be in carry-on baggage, not checked.
