Be aware of this FCC ruling
Had heard it was occurring, but now it is confirmed and hopefully stopped in its tracks. http://www.rvmobileinternet.com/fcc-strongly-rules-that-wifi-blocking-is-prohibited/

Cellphone service was never designed to work in an airplane
Whether or not you can get a signal, below 5000 ft
The airlines never needed to jam anything
The service they now provide uses additional equipment , to provide cellular service, which you would otherwise not have flying at the normal altitudes for passenger jets
At those altitudes you would not have service period, with out their equipment to provide service
Nobody forces you too buy an airline ticket, and nobody forces you too buy the service , they are not jamming your cell phone just to sell you service, your cell won't work at that altitude
Planes in flight , are a totally different deal , than a hotel blocking your cell signal from the local tower
