On-line in the Air: Rules still vary

Just back the other day from a week in Spain, flying both ways on Iberia. Unlike the U.S. carriers that now allow gate-to-gate use of electronics (as long as they’re in airplane mode) Iberia very firmly told me to put away my phone and Kindle until the seat-belt light was off—just like the old days!

 

Has anyone else had recent experience with non-U.S. airlines and their policies. I know the EU regulatory authorities have issued rules that are pretty much the same as the FAA’s, but apparently not all the airlines have taken them up on it.
