Aeroplane mode not working

Hi, I have an Ipad Air 2. I use Areoplane mode at night but despite selecting this button to be 'on' my internet still works and I get notifications all night long. How can I sort it?

AirPlane mode initially disables all radio interfaces (Cellular, WiFi and Bluetooth/BTLE) - however, you may then manually re-enable WiFi and/or the BT/BTLE radios. The override is sticky - and will be remembered by the iPad when AirPlane mode is subsequently toggled Off or On.


The current radio status is visible from the Control Centre - the icons being Green, Orange, Blue, Grey on Grey, or White on Grey.


Of the available radios, it is only Cellular that is forced to a fully disabled state when AirPlane mode is active. As such, with Airplane mode active, you can configure the WiFi and/or Bluetooth connections to remain available.
