While taxing after landing are you allowed 2 call ppl?

Question

just wondering im 13 and going to MHT alone in just a couple of weeks!! and i want my aunt to be there right when i land so im not worried looking for her. :) thx so are you allowed to call ppl during taxi after landing??

Answer 1

yes,

actually you can call during the flight with your cellphone

the myth about it interfering with air traffic controls... totally BS

it just annoys people when you are jabbering on your phone and it causes the cell companies have difficulty tracking the signal because you are passing each cell tower too fast.

Answer 2

You can call when you land and are taxiing in. You can not call from the air however. It may not interfere with any electronics but it is still a federal law.

Answer 3

Actually, it has been demonstrated that if several mobiles are used at once during the landing phase, it can have an effect on the plane's ability to receive the ILS properly. However, after landing it's not a problem- don't need the ILS any more!

Answer 4

Im going on a trip to chicago soon as well and you have to turn ur phone off when you take off but when you land and taxi off of the runway u can turn ur phone on usually flight attendants tell you ahead of time so good luck

Answer 5

Yes, once the plane lands and it's taxiing towards the jetway for you to disembark, you are allowed to turn cel phones on and make calls, so don't worry at all!
