Yes...And no... Flight Mode must be enabled, but you are allowed to activate WiFi to access the Q-Streaming entertainment app, or, on aircraft so fitted, the interwebz. I'm not sure how they view Bluetooth as I always use wired ANC headphones (and have never had a problem hearing crew instructions for that matter, sho how loud did he have them up??), but I see dozens of people with wireless (BT) headphones every flight I take as SLF suggesting it is either approved, or has a blind eye turned to it.
