5G is set to arrive on board aircraft in Europe by June 2023. — AFP Relaxnews
The European Commission has authorised the deployment of 5G on board aircraft as of June 30, 2023. This means that it may no longer be necessary to switch to airplane mode during a flight. Theoretically, this also means that we will be able to make calls to our loved ones when we’re soaring above the clouds.
Those who travel by train in Europe are probably used to announcements reminding passengers to make their phone calls on the platform outside the seating area of each wagon in order to respect the calm of other guests who probably don’t want to hear your whole phone conversation. On most trains, at least there is this space. But what about on board an airplane?
