It should be possible to turn off the Bluetooth of the Sense 2 when traveling by plane. See e.g. British Airways: https://www.britishairways.com/cms/global/pdfs/handheld-devices-used-onboard_Dec14.pdf
"All Bluetooth accessories [...] must remain switched off for taxi, take-off and landing"
Currently, the Sense 2 has to be switched off completely.

I believe it is a necessary feature, too. 

Why? Because:

- when I know I don't need Bluetooth or wifi, I want to save battery. There is no need for me, to have it turned on always.

- I guess it's not strong enough to disturb airplanes, but still would be good to switch it into flight mode there. 

Anyway, I love control and to be able to adjust things. The idea to buy a device that I can't adjust or set all features, seems weird to me. Like buying a house but not getting all keys to all rooms.
