Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for receiving, from one of two or more sensors of a device that independently determine whether an aircraft takeoff has likely occurred, an indication that the aircraft takeoff has likely occurred; activating, based on receiving the indication that the aircraft takeoff has likely occurred, an airplane mode of the device; receiving, while the device is in the airplane mode and from one of two or more other sensors of the device that independently determine that an aircraft flight is likely not occurring, an indication that the aircraft flight is likely not occurring; and deactivating, based on receiving the indication that the aircraft flight is likely not occurring, the airplane mode of the device. The indication that the aircraft takeoff has likely occurred may include acceleration data indicating an acceleration of the device in three dimensions.

Enabling and disabling wireless communication in electronic devices

An alert system is configured to track conditions for a tracking system. The one or more processors of the alert system are configured to receive data in a payload related to characteristics of tracking devices of the tracking system. The one or more processors are then configured to determine a condition timeframe for each condition for a given alert based on the data in the payload. The given alert requires at least a first condition and a second condition of the plurality of conditions. The one or more processors are configured to perform a query for historical data for the first condition based on a timestamp of the second condition that is prior to the first condition, determine an alert timeframe for the given, alert based on the condition timeframes and the historical data, and store the given alert and the alert timeframe in a memory of the alert system.
