European Carriers To Test In-Flight Cell Phones
Some passengers are all for it. Others sardonically figure it's just what they need -- a fat passenger next to them, a caterwauling child behind them, and someone in front shouting into a cell phone. In Europe, at least, air travel is about to get a lot noisier.
Two European airlines say they'll initiate in-flight cell phone service late next year in a pair of separate trials designed to see if the technology will work -- and will be tolerated by both other passengers and flight crew members.
Portugal's TAP Air and Britain's BMI will both use OnAir's voice and text service for their trials of cellular services. OnAir hopes to be "on the air" with in-flight cell service in 2007 worldwide -- except in North America, according to OnAir CEO George Cooper.
