Wow. I had this down as an England to Spain flight but was a Latvia (Riga) to Ireland (Dublin) flight. Lol.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too. I have heard of cases where flight attendants have stopped people from filming or photographing the cabin, claiming security concerns. It's probably in the fine print somewhere.

Rules vary by airline, and apparently are difficult to track down.

And enforcement seems entirely at the whim of the flight attendant, who may or may not be having a bad day. Last March, I flew to Pittsburgh and took lots of pictures out the window, including the wing. Nobody made a peep. I wasn't making a big deal of it, though. I do think, though, that there could be legitimate security concerns. I had a friend who is a pilot for a US airline, and he spoke often of concerns about potential terrorists taking flights to scope out security procedures and flight crew activities. Good photos of cockpit doors or other equipment could, theoretically, be used by the bad guys in making their nefarious plans. But I think it mostly has to do with the airlines wanting to avoid bad press, either from video of faulty equipment, unruly passengers, or nasty FAs.
