Still Waters Posted December 2, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Airline passengers in the European Union (EU) will soon be able to use their phones to full effect in the sky. The European Commission ruled airlines can provide 5G technology on board planes, alongside slower mobile data. This could mean flyers will no longer be required to put their phone on airplane mode - though the specifics of how it will be implemented are unclear. The deadline for member states to make the 5G frequency bands available for planes is 30 June 2023. This will mean people can use all their phone's features mid-flight - enabling calls as well as data-heavy apps that stream music and video. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-63786591 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
