Did you log a complaint? A person flying in 1st class should not be treated that way.

Nowadays, I don't think it's a problem, even if you don't have flightmode enabled. Maybe on some ancient planes the phone could start interfering with the aircraft's communication channels... I regularly hear those Nokia SMS-beeps prior to landing and just after takeoff and it's never ever been a problem. It also depends on the airline, for example KLM flight attendants will let you use the phone till pushback, if they see a phone on an Easyjet flight, they will ask you to turn it off, no matter what... If it would really be unsecure, they would take the phone from you at the metal-detactor...

So here's a question... how do you put the phone into flight mode?
What ifyou switched it off for take-off, then an hour later switched it on?
The 1st thing most phones do when they are switched on is try and register with a network - this is the bit that gets most flight staff twichy, as it's when the phone starts interfering with the plane...
So can you switch it on into flight mode directly, or is it an option in a menu?

No, the P800 asks every time you power on what mode you want.

The captain has his 3210 just lying around in the cockpit, right next to the FMC.
