The department is asking again whether to forbid the airlines from allowing voice calls to be made at all with a mobile wireless device, even one that uses a different frequency than a cell phone. Public comment on the proposed rule document, Use of Mobile Wireless Devices for Voice Calls on Aircraft, closes on February 13. Comments can be left at http://www.regulations.gov/ document?D=DOT-OST-2014-0002-2829. The Federal Communication Commission, one of three federal agencies that oversees the airline industry, doesn’t prohibit voice calls over Wi-Fi--only certain commercial mobile bands. U.S. carriers have the capability to permit passengers to make and take calls in-flight via Wi-Fi, according to the DOT filing. It adds that international carriers report no problems among passengers because of loud talking on calls--and the high cost of the service ensures most conversations are brief. Another option the airlines could adopt eventually as a compromise is to allow “listen-only” calls where business passengers could participate silently in a conference call. Business travelers, aware of the discomfort other nearby passengers could experience from a two-way call in a meeting, suggested airlines and regulators consider the less intrusive call service. Airlines could set their own policies for passengers about in-flight phone calls, under the new proposal. Carriers that don’t allow phone service would not need to tell customers. However, domestic airlines that adopt a Wi-Fi phone technology would be required to give advance notice, the Transportation Department said. An exemption is given to an airliner with 60 or fewer seats. “Permitting passengers to make voice calls onboard aircraft may create an environment that is unfair and deceptive” to the other passengers who prefer a quiet cabin, the DOT rule says. Voice calls over a mobile wireless device could be acceptable to federal airline and transportation authorities, the DOT says. Passengers who switch to Wi-Fi mode on their cell phones, computers, tablets, and other portable electronic devices wouldn’t pose a risk to the safety of the aircraft, according to officials. The proposal includes Voice over Internet Protocol, which some businesses use instead of the phone companies. One airline is on record opposing the government’s regulation of voice calls in-air, even though the carrier says it has no plans to introduce phone service in its fleet. Budget carrier Spirit Airlines told the DOT three years ago that airlines themselves should decide whether to notify customers about the possibility of midair phone conversations by other passengers in the cabin. It took a position that the passengers can decide whether to fly or avoid certain airlines, based on their phone policies. Federal officials here admittedly are trying to see which way the wind is blowing, and if more American travelers wish to spend their time in the air talking on a phone or listening to someone else’s conversation. A spot check of the comments filed with the DOT since last month shows that people’s attitudes haven’t changed. They prefer a cozy, quiet cabin 30,000 feet above the hustle bustle of business deals and personal dramas back at home. “U.S. consumer have come to expect a voice-call-free cabin environment,” the department’s review suggests. “They may generally hold a different view from foreign consumers on the issue of voice calls.” The closest thing U.S. fliers have to two-way communication is texting from the sky. Alaska Airlines this month announced the launch of a free service that allows passengers to send text messages in midair. Called Free Chat, the Wi-Fi messaging service is available on all but five of Alaska’s 737s and requires apps such as iMessage, Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp. There’s still no texting allowed using a cell-phone service, the airline said. •
