A prudent person doesn’t ever joke about bombs in an airport. After today, you might want to extend those warnings to a certain flagship Samsung smartphone. According to a BBC report, a passenger on a Virgin America flight from San Francisco to Boston last week labelled his phone’s Wi-Fi hotspot as “Galaxy Note 7.” Hijinks, of the not particularly entertaining variety, ensued.
The report says that passengers and crew noticed the name of the Wi-Fi hotspot while the plane was in the air, causing the crew to call out asking anyone with the fire-prone phone model to tell them.
