Vicki asked:


People obviously can and do use cell phones on airplanes. I’ve seen people do it. So what is the issue?

Do cell phones really “interfere with the aircrafts navigation system”?

Luis G asked:


I travel a lot and very frequently notice people who don’t turn off their phones. Phones sometimes go off and are even answered. I have never seen or heard of any mishaps as a consequence. Why do airlines insist so vehemently on preventing passengers from using their phones?
