[QUOTE="Mike_60, post: 2442891, member: 16957"] As for the cell phones, the network will probably try to ring the phones from the last tower they were in contact with. As you move your phone automatically registers to the nearest tower that has a compatible network. I'm not positive about 4G, but the earlier technologies only work about five miles from a tower. Over the ocean there would be no service except if the airliner provided a mini cell with an up link to a ground service provider. [/QUOTE]
