You will receive all kinds of stories as to why, and all of them are wrong. If signals were to interfere with the plane systems, do you really think they would let you decide to switch it off or not? LOL. THE absolute only reason is two folds: 1) from the early days, the notion that it may affect the plane has stayed – fear is a difficult to let go. 2) so that everybody DONT try to call their friends and chat for 5 hours straight next to each other. We would go insane. Here i explained it. Any comment that says interference, signals etc dont know anything unfortunately.
