I agree. Plane flights are annoying enough already without having to listen to 2 teenage girls talking non-stop inanities for a few hours.

I'd have to agree with you there.

Gah...count me in too. Are airlines REALLY trying to make flying into the 21st century equivalent of Torquemada?

After a 4 hour trip next to a gaggle of teen-age girls yakking on their cell phones, a little waterboarding in Guantanamo would seem positively refreshing. Heck, on a trans-Pacific flight, I'd probably be ready to blow up the plane myself.

Plane flights area also the only place you can turn your phone off and not be bugged by work. At least that way you have an excuse not to answer calls from your boss.

So we need the government to step in and dictate this? Shouldn't it be up to the airline as to what customer services they allow and don't allow on their planes?

I mean, talking isn't exactly a health concern. Someone yaking on the phone next to you isn't causing you bodily harm. If you don't like it, then you should fly an airline that *chooses* not to allow patrons to talk in-flight.

Or I could just take the phone from the person, BREAK IT IN HALF. Give it back to them with $200 cash and tell them to STFU.

If you have the money, as well as the funds to make amends for any fees incurred in porting data from phones, and other financial repercussions for disconnecting the phone, go for it. Myself, I'd just let them yak while I pass out for the duration of the flight.

Although it may cause them bodily harm...

The only sound you would hear from 2 teenage girls would be from them typing on the number pad, as they text away the whole flight.

And if your flight departs on-time but arrives late, it will be illegal to contact your client waiting for you on the ground notifying them.

That's what all those "Arrival" and "Departure" screens at the airport are for...

Only good if your client is picking you up at the airport. I'm thinking about that meeting you have across town.
