"Starting from 20181.0618, welcome everyone and take the lead in booting!" China Eastern Airlines announced that from 0: 00 on June 18, some passengers can use portable electronic devices (PED) such as "airplane mode" mobile phones, tablets (PADs), laptops and e-readers on the plane, but the cellular mobile communication function needs to be turned off.
You should pay attention to the rules when you use your mobile phone on the plane. It is agreed that when the "flight mode" is turned on, the mobile data cannot be turned on at will to avoid accidents in flight. We should believe that "lifting the ban" is because the technology is mature, but "lifting the ban" cannot be understood as the free use of mobile phones. There are several misunderstandings that should be noted:
Myth 1: You can make a phone call during the flight.
Restrict voice communication on the plane. The policy of Europe, America and China is to release the use of mobile phone terminal WiFi in flight mode, but prohibit the voice communication function.
Myth 2: After airlines allow the use of mobile phones, they don't have to pay attention to the requirements of the crew.
According to relevant laws, when suspected interference is found, the crew has the right to prohibit passengers from using mobile phones, and passengers must obey the requirements of the crew.
According to industry insiders, to use a mobile phone on an airplane, it is necessary to turn on the flight mode of the mobile phone and turn off the cellular mobile communication function. Devices such as mobile phones that do not have flight mode are still prohibited from being used in the air.
Therefore, as long as you follow the rules when using mobile phones, flight safety will be guaranteed!
