Icmeler Online Holiday Forum & Reviews - Turkey

I have just treated myself to an MP3 player. I have loads of Turkish music, some boom boom music, and some 60's music, amongst other music. I also have my book to read on the flight. I hate flying.

Can you take an MP3 player on the flight?

Yes Mary but you can't use during take off or landing. Have a great time! xx

Yes MP3 players are fine. You can also use them during take off and landing as far as I know as it doesn't interfere with anything.

Thanks both, I can boogie my way to Icmeler now

Better not start singing out loud

The above statement is unfortunately incorrect.

Following the CAA rules the use of electronic equipment including MP3's is prohibited during the taxi, take-off and landing phases of flight, (when the passenger seat belt sign is on).

For full details see http://www.caa.co.uk/default.aspx?catid ... ageid=9853

Once the seat belt sign is off then no problem as long as the device does not transmit any type of signal.

That is true - when we flew to Dalaman in June, the stewards were going round checking that no-one had MP3 players on at those times - my daughter had to put hers off until the seat belt signs went out.

Thanks for that information. As long as I can take it on board, I dont mind not being able to use it on take off or landing.

Thanks again.
