Well, if they are transmitting, at least in theory it would be possible to detect that transmission. Though I would be kind of surprised if they actually put much effort into actually enforcing it.

- sokoloff 4y agoUnder FAA rules (what I’m familiar with, EU/DE/ICAO is probably similar), the air carrier can determine which portable electronic devices to allow. The law (it’s short): https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/14/91.21 https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/14/91.21 An advisory circular relating to it: https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Advisory_Circular/AC_91.21-1D.pdf https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Advisory_Circular/... This allows an air carrier to approve anything they’re confident won’t cause an issue but not approve AirTags.
