Really? Am I missing something? I've never been pulled up on using bluetooth headphones on a plane in the EU. The flight attendants have never said anything, and I've been in full view of them before...
- detaro 8y agoYou've never been told to use airplane mode for the entire flight?
- madeofpalk 8y agoAirplane mode and disabling bluetooth are two different things https://imgur.com/a/OtWmvWq https://imgur.com/a/OtWmvWq
- detaro 8y agoAirplane mode generally disables all wireless connections, including Bluetooth. EDIT: researching it that could be just a "be safe" catch all though, and regulation might actually mean just cellular in some cases. No idea how a normal person is supposed to figure out what exactly applies to the current flight then.

I worked at an airline two years ago on the rollout of inflight wifi and they advise customers to enable airplane mode and reenable wifi (if it's disabled). These days within aviation, "airplane mode" refers to disabling just of the cellular radios.
- detaro 8y agointeresting, I stand corrected. (see also edit above)
