Fact Sheet – Cell Phones, Wi-Fi and Portable Electronics on Airplanes
I’ve been saying this for 10 years. It’s crazy that airlines still dish out such claptrap about “important safety regulations on this aircraft prohibit use of mobile phones and certain electronic devices” blah blah blah. It’s just nonsense.
Mobile phones, iPads and similar gadgets now have “flight mode” which switches off wifi and 3G, but no, airlines still insist that this “mode” is still dangerous. Rubbish.
On every single flight there must be at least 5% to 10% of phones left switched on in error (or simple disobedience). If mobile phones truly caused problems then planes would be fallin out of the sky daily.
Get over it airlines. It’s a myth.

Ladies and Gentlemen, please remain in your seats until Captain Crash and the Crew have brought the aircraft to a screeching halt against the gate. And, once the tire smoke has cleared and the warning bells are silenced, we will open the door and you can pick your way through the wreckage to the terminal…
In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have a small child travelling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are travelling with more than one small child, pick your favourite.
