I'm having a problem finding a way to permanently disable the Airplane mode feature. Every time I close my HP Stream laptop's lid it goes into airplane mode, so no emails are incoming. Strangely there seems to be no option to prevent this from happening in Ubuntu, so I wonder if there's a way to permanently disable Airplane mode.

2Does this answer your question? Why does "Airplane Mode" keep toggling on my HP laptop in Ubuntu 18.04? or https://askubuntu.com/questions/970120/prevent-airplane-mode-from-turning-on-when-lid-is-closed-in-ubuntu-gnome-17-04 – K7AAY Apr 29 '20 at 21:47

Quite hacky but working solution.
crontab -e
inside write:
* * * * * /usr/sbin/rfkill unblock all
I tries to unblock wifi and bluetooth every minute.
And maybe you need to add user to the rfkill group (Ubuntu 20.04 work well without that).
