The number of routes on which Lufthansa passengers can use their smartphones, tablets, notebooks and other electronic devices uninterrupted for their entire time on board is set to increase significantly.
From March, Lufthansa will allow these devices to be used on all Airbus aircraft.
Since January, passengers have already been able to use their electronic devices in flight mode on Boeing 747-8s from gate to gate.
With permission now granted for the Airbus fleet, usage will soon be possible on almost 250 aircraft. Lufthansa is also seeking approval for other aircraft types as soon as possible.
Out of consideration for other passengers, telephone calls will still not be allowed during the flight.
