Portable Electronic Devices
For your safety, the use of certain carry-on portable electronic devices is restricted as they may interfere with the aircraft navigation and control systems. We would appreciate if you could refrain from using any portable electronic equipment while the aircraft is taxiing, during takeoff and climb, or during approach and landing.
Electronic devices that are most likely to cause interference are amateur transceivers, CB radios, transmitting or wireless-enabled devices such as Bluetooth and remote control devices, including toys. The use of these devices is banned at all times on board.
Mobile phones must be switched off completely when the cabin doors are closed for departure and must not be turned on again until after landing. The cabin crew will advise you when you can switch them on again. Mobile phones may be used on the ground during transit at any time the cabin doors are open (unless otherwise instructed by cabin crew).
Other forms of electronic devices such as computer equipment (e.g. laptops and PDAs), audio/video equipment (e.g. CDs, MDs, MP3s, iPods, DVDs, VCDs, CD-ROMs), photographic equipment (e.g. camcorders and digital cameras) and devices with their wireless function disabled may be used on board from 15 minutes after takeoff until the seat belt sign is switched on in preparation for landing. The cabin crew will make an announcement to remind you of this safety requirement.
Please note that personal electronic device cannot be plugged into the aircraft's electrical power supply outlets.* This includes any type of charging devices. An exception is made for portable shavers which may only be used in the appropriate sockets in the lavatories.
* In-seat power for laptops will soon be available across our entire fleet.
