Re: [PSES] BLE and air plane travel

2016-07-08 Thread Ted Eckert 
The FAA allows Bluetooth throughout the duration of a flight. See the following 
press release from 2013.
http://www.faa.gov/news/press_releases/news_story.cfm?newsid=15254

Individual airlines can place stricter requirements on the operation of 
wireless devices if they choose, but I doubt many would consider BLE hearing 
aids to be an issue. In addition, the FAA rules only apply to flights within 
the FAA’s jurisdiction. I can make no statement for flights outside of the 
United States.

A friend has hearing aids with BLE. Does he need to turn them off during 
airplane travel?
The FAA has given airlines permission to allow wireless. So does it depend? Or 
does the power level impact it? How about other countries?
Thanks!
