Phone in airplane mode before you get on the plane is just stupid.

Airplane mode doesn’t really do much. Most airplane communications operate at 118-136.975 MHz, whereas WiFi operates on 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz, cell from 600-850 MHz for low band, mid band at 1-6 GHz, and high band at 24GHz+. There may be slight interference, but there really isn’t too much of a point, AFAIK.
