Absolutely. The only time you must turn them off is during take off and landing, but they will instruct you when. Enjoy your flight.

LOL I once took my laptop with me on the plane, took it with me, didn't wanna check it. The security guy actually took the laptop out of the case and turned it on to check it!!

I assure you that Wi Fi is not going to make the plane crash. I have played it with friends in the seat behind me and no one knew the wiser. Cell phones and all those electronics they tell you to turn off and cannot be used are for precautions only, not because of any known issues or else they would not be allowed on the plane to begin with.

I don't know anything about customs, but I don't thin you should be very concerned.

As long as it isn't during take off or landing, it should be fine.

No, your plane might crash and you will be the one to blame. Avoid bringing your DS at all costs.

It's safe. I had to sit through a 5 hour flight 2 weeks ago and played my DS the entire way. Just had it in my carry on and no one ever said anything or even asked me to turn it on. Even a person i was with had his laptop and they never checked. Just scanned and away we went. Enjoy gaming on your flight. Most they may do is just ask you to turn it on

Not a dumb question at all. (I asked the same thing last November.) In this day and age it's difficult to know what you can bring and what you can't.


It was a Godsend at the airport where the wait is 2 hours or more! And it made the the trip (3 hours) a whole lot shorter!

Are you serious? When I'm on 17 hour plane flights, I have to have some sort of entertainment when they stop showing the movies.

Alright start fromt he top:
Customs wont take ure DS, if they would have, id have a couple new DS's, jsut keep the DS in you bag while goign through customs and don't take it out.
Go ahead and play on the plane nothing will go wrong, if there was a chance of stuff goign wrong, you wouldnt be abel to bring it on in the first place.
During take-off/landingthey'll tell you too turn off all electronics, do so, peopel are abel to resist a few minutes without playing, and plus you'll be to busy lookign outthe window looking at how high you are to play.
ANd finally have a nice trip.

yeah you can, but you have to wait until you have reached your cruising altitude.
