Travel with iPad
Some airlines let you keep your iPad turned on if you switch to Airplane Mode. Wi-Fi and
Bluetooth are disabled so you can’t make or receive FaceTime calls or use features that require
wireless communication, but you can listen to music, play games, watch videos, or use other
apps that don’t require Internet access. If your airline allows it, you can turn Wi-Fi or Bluetooth
back on to enable those services, even while in Airplane Mode.
Turn on Airplane Mode. Swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen to open Control Center,
then tap . You can also turn Airplane Mode on or o in Settings. When Airplane Mode is on,
appears in the status bar at the top of the screen.
You can also turn Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on or o in Control Center. See Control Center on page 33.
When you travel abroad, you may be able to sign up for cellular service with a carrier in the
country you’re visiting, right from your iPad (available on iPad models with cellular and Touch ID).
