I think it’s still worth doing so your phone isn’t rapidly trying to connect and disconnect from nearby cell towers as you ascend and descend. Maybe there’s already protections in place for this case but it makes sense that it could add a lot of unnecessary strain on certain cell towers.

Not to mention the battery drain.
It’s been a long time since I’ve flown on a plane without at least a USB port to plug into, most have had full outlets to plug into lmao
It’s been a long time since my charger has actually stayed plugged into one of those worn-ass outlets in a plane.
Also, I don’t want to have to juggle multiple charging devices in the tiny cramped space where I’m already stressed and miserable.
Budget flights don’t have that kind of luxury.
I take short flights the whole year (like 6-10 per month) and I never had the USB chargers.
Those are like 1h flights tho
This is the primary reason I do it, although more for my battery life than the cell towers.
