题目内容:
China Eastern Airline and other domestic airlines have begun to allow mobile phone use on their flights(航班) or announced plans to cancel the ban(禁令).
On Thursday, China Eastern Airlines and Hainan Airlines began to allow passengers to use portable electronic devices (PED), such as smartphones and tablets, but phones still have to be changed to airplane mode(飞行模式). China Southern Airlines and Xiamen Airlines announced Thursday they would allow mobile phone use on all their flights soon.
The permission comes after the Civil Aviation Administration of China(中国民用航空局) asked that the ban be canceled earlier this week. According to the guideline before, staffs in the planes needed to ask passengers to turn off any devices that could interrupt the flight, even airplane mode was not permitted.
Inflight wifi is available on 74 of China Eastern Airlines' aircrafts, covering all international routes and 166 domestic routes. Hainan Airlines has enabled inflight wifi on 17 of its airplanes.
"Before, I just slept aboard the airplane, sometimes read magazines in front of me and then had nothing to do. But now, I can use my social network accounts like Weibo or Wechat," said a passenger named Zuo, who took a flight with wifi from Shanghai Thursday.
