Last week brought big news for frequent airline passengers, as the Federal Aviation Administration finally relaxed its long-held restrictions related to gadget use on planes. Soon, airplane passengers will be allowed to use their electronic devices – including e-readers, mp3 players, smartphones, and gaming devices – while the plane is taxiing to and from the runway or preparing for takeoff or landing. Previously, electronic devices were only permitted at cruising altitudes, due to a worry that such devices would lead to radio interference for the plane and make flights unsafe.

But while most airplane passengers will no longer have to hear the order of “please turn off all electronic devices” on their flights, they will likely soon begin hearing a different kind of directive. While use of electronic devices is now allowed for the full duration of a passenger’s time on an airplane, those devices must be placed in “airplane mode” when applicable to minimize any possible interference. In other words, while passengers will be able to play games or music on their phones in mid-flight, they won’t be able to text or make calls.

Or will they? Following quickly on the tails of the Federal Aviation Administration announcement, Gogo – the company responsible for contributing airplane Wi-Fi access to many airlines – announced that it was working on a new “Text and Talk” feature that would utilize the plane’s in-flight Wi-Fi network to make calls or send texts from their smartphones.

Naturally, the Gogo in-flight communication function would be unlocked using a downloadable app. The app would work to essentially subvert a user’s traditional mobile network and to connect their phones to Gogo’s in-flight network instead. They would then be able to use the airplane network to communicate with others, either on the plane or on the ground.

It is unclear how much travelers will be asked to pay for the service, though according to ABC News, the pricing question is causing a bit of a dilemma for Gogo. The company worries that most airlines won’t go for the “talk” portion of the service, since most airline passengers like their peace and quiet while in the air. The texting option remains attractive, but Gogo isn’t sure passengers would be willing to pay for just an in-air text messaging service. Therefore, Gogo is working on separating the services to allow for a more affordable text-only option.

However, Gogo’s full Text and Talk service hasn’t gone to waste. United States airlines have already implemented the service for passengers on private jets, were long and loud phone calls won’t distract other passengers.
