Yes. It's a simple toggle that can be added to the qyickbar: "airplane mode on/off". And while it's on, you can override it with individual settings, such as turning on bluetooth while everything remains off. Hazzle free and fast.

I use this feature a lot, as I fly very often, and I use bluetooth buds. I have filled my phone to the brim with various media to binge until touchdown. It helps conserve battery, as the radio doesn't have to TX at full power while looking for a signal at FL500 in the middle of the Atlantic
