Chinese airlines allow inflight mobile phone use, wifi
Passengers use mobile phones with inflight wifi
connections on board the flight HU7781 of Hainan Airlines, Jan. 18, 2018. On
Thursday, China Eastern Airlines and Hainan Airlines began to allow passengers
to use portable electronic devices (PED), such as smartphones and tablets, but
phones still have to be switched to airplane mode. Inflight wifi is available on
74 of China Eastern Airlines' aircraft, covering all long-range international
routes and 166 domestic routes. Hainan Airlines has enabled inflight wifi on 17
of its aircraft.
Other Chinese airlines are also considering allowing
mobile phone use. The permission comes after the Civil Aviation Administration
of China asked that the ban be lifted earlier this week. (Xinhua)
