That's kinda funny if true because I can't imagine that weight is really a reliable indicator of how much radio interference a laptop puts out.

- BillinghamJ 10y agoIt's not about interference - it's about how bad a projectile the object would be. Below 2 pounds, the idea is that it wouldn't do too much damage.
- troupe 10y agoThe 2 pound limit is because that is the amount the FAA has determined is safe to keep in the seat back pocket in addition to the stuff that is already in there. The idea is that if there is turbulence you'd put it in the pocket. If radio interference actually was a threat, there is no way they would let every passenger take a phone on the plane.
