Cathay Pacific and Dragonair will allow passengers to keep small electronic devices on in airplane mode during taxi, takeoff and landing beginning Sept. 15,
the carriers announced this week. Hong Kong's Civil Aviation Department on Tuesday reported it revised its regulations after determining the use of such devices is safe during all stages of flight. Passengers still must store larger electronic devices such as laptops during takeoff and landing and cannot use power outlets to charge devices during that time.
