On newer planes, yes. Older planes have unshielded cables running
the length of the plane. Airlines fly some pretty old planes.
Sometimes you get a plane that is over 20 years old. Also note
that you're inside a big reflective tube, and that a cell phone
will use extra transmit power when it has trouble communicating.
Since human life is involved, you shouldn't be taking such risks.
