Airplane Mode

Airplane Mode

Airplane Mode is about the urban legend that cell phone are bad for airplanes. Granted, I’ve barely flown post-9/11, and when I have.. it was long before smart phones were a thing.

In the U.S., Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations prohibit the use of mobile phones aboard aircraft in flight.Contrary to popular misconception, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) does not actually prohibit the use of personal electronic devices (including cell phones) on aircraft.
