I thought the whole point was that you could use your mobile phone as a MP3 player/gaming device while on a plane - all communications software is switched off when on Flight Mode so the mobile phone becomes a handheld electronic device no different to an iPod or handheld gamer.
So imagine my surprise when I was told in no uncertain terms on a flight yesterday that i MUST switch off the phone. I pointed out it was on Flight Mode - was told NO - you MUST switch off the phone.
So what exactly is the point of going to the trouble of buying a mobile phone that supports Flight Mode if you cannot use it on a flight!!!!
