Article says "The real reason is this: Airlines think people won’t stop yapping on their cell phones during flights, leading to more instances of “air rage.” That’s why regulators continue to ban phone calls and data usage on planes; it’s just plain annoying." I agree with a no cell phones rule. I can think back to one pre-teen sitting next to parents and yapping very loud on a video call to another pre-teen about absolutely nothing and yet the words continued and I looked forward to the girl having to turn off her phone for the flight.
