MOBILE TELEPHONES ON FLIGHTS

Motion Text

That this House is opposed to plans by some European airlines to introduce mobile telephone services on their flights; notes that in the most recent survey of business travellers the majority were opposed to the idea; believes that use of mobile telephones on aircraft will irritate other passengers; fears that users will face substantial hidden charges for such services; and is gravely concerned that the mobile service may be used to detonate a bomb hidden in luggage or cargo.
