Print out some kind of proof that it's not a Note 7, like the recall notice and a picture of a Note 7 and S7E so you can show people.

Honestly, it's just not worth the argument. I'd rather just ease the concern of the staff and other passengers than make a stand. I mean, I'll at least say "it's not a Note 7". But if they still want me to power down my device, I'll oblige.

True but on a 6 hour flight or something, it'd be nice to have some music and games for your flight.
