The horror at 37,000 feet: EU allows in-flight cellphone use
The European Commission introduced new rules on Monday, 7 April 2008, for mobile communications on aircrafts during flights. The new regulations give the airlines a green light to let their passengers talk on their mobile phones midair - with a few caveats, of course.
Airline passengers who want to talk on their cellphones mid-flight may be able to do so as early as this year - at least when they're flying over Europe. Chatting it up at 35,000 feet will be allowed, provided the plane is equipped with devices that create an on-board cellular network.
The Commission, however, did not create protections for quiet passengers who might find themselves stuck next to a working business person or a chatting teenager.
