Mexico now allow phones on planes

Yesterday an article appeared on IntoMobile which reported that mobile phones are now allowed to be used on aircraft. The news comes following a meeting last year by the the National Advisory Committee for the Standardization of Air Transport.

It is now understood that a law stating mobile phones cannot be used on aircraft has been overturned by Mexico’s Ministry of Communications and Transport, however the law still forbid s some handsets from being used which have not been fitted with specific equipment.

It is understood that European airlines have also tested this technology, however no laws have yet been overturned. To see the full article check out IntoMobile.

Would you like to be able to use your mobile phone on flights? Or do you think they would become an annoyance? Feel free to add your opinions below. Personally I like planes not allowing phone calls as I would hate to be stuck sat next to someone with a loud voice on their mobile phone.
