Flight attendants can connect the eFAD to Wi-Fi during flight for personal use. True or False?

Flight attendants are not permitted to connect the eFAD (Electronic Flight Attendant Device) to Wi-Fi during flight for personal use. The devices used by flight attendants are primarily designed for work-related tasks and safety protocols. Allowing personal use could pose risks to the security and reliability of the in-flight systems and create potential distractions during critical operation periods. This policy ensures that crew members remain focused on their responsibilities and that the integrity of the flight operation is maintained.

There may be instances where flight attendants can connect their devices before departure or during specific situations on the ground; however, during the flight, personal use of Wi-Fi on eFAD devices is not allowed. This regulation reflects the emphasis on safety and professionalism in the aviation industry.
