From September 2007 mobiles will be allowed on Air France flights, but only in Europe. Air France has obtained approval from the European Aviation Safety Agency to use GSM-based mobile phones, the first approval of its kind anywhere in the world. BlackBerry-type devices will also be allowed. Air France's cabin crew will have the power to deactivate the system, should the need arise (e.g. overnight).
A fear regarding using mobiles on airplanes was that as towers on the ground are in the far distance, during flight mobiles attempting to communicate would boost their signal (causing interference with the plane's electronic equipment). The system Air France is implementing will prevent this by responding to mobile phone signals onboard, meaning they would not need to emit their maximum limit of electromagnetic radiation.
The St. Martin island is so small that its Juliana Airport skirts against one of the island's famed Carribean beaches.
