Why does the airplane mode turn on automatically when both my wifi and bluetooth are turned off? How do I disable it?

  • What do you what to use other than wifi and Bluetooth that would be disabled by Bluetooth? Why is there a need to not have it in airplane mode if you have Bluetooth and wifi off? – Jeff Sep 13 '18 at 16:10

    When I close the lid the system puts itself in airplane mode, the problem is that it does not get out of it automatically when I open it. – Sebastián Grignoli Aug 26 '20 at 12:48
  • Same problem - using Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04.1 on an HP Spectre Pro x360 G2. – Owen Oct 13 '20 at 22:34

If you do not have mobile broadband in your computer, then turning of both WIFI and Bluetooth effectively puts the device in airplane mode.
