Whenever you enable Airplane Mode on your phone, it turns off the cellular data in your phone, but here is how you can use the Internet in Flight Mode.

Getting your phone into flight mode or enabling airplane mode turns off all radio signals – Wi-Fi, mobile data, Bluetooth, etc. You cannot use the Internet in flight mode unless you disable it or you connect your phone to Wi-Fi.

There are a few reasons you might want to put your phone into flight mode—you might want to charge your phone faster and reduce battery consumption, or you might want to temporarily block incoming calls and messages.
