Why does my boyfriend put his phone on airplane mode?
If he put it on flight mode, put it in his pocket and never took it out while you were together, it's likely he just doesn't want interruptions to his time with you. Even then, it would be more common to put it on silent, so that he could check from time to time that he could see who had been contacting them.
What is the disadvantage of airplane mode?
