My experience, at least with American Airlines, is that they are fine with offline as an effective off state. In fact on my last trip I noticed that was inserted into the pre-takeoff spiel.
"Dear Zir/Ma'am, we're zorry zoo inform you zat you have zoo put your device off. Zis means no Zuspend-To-RAM. Next time, consider to fly business class. Zorry for any inconvencience this may cause."

No warries, ze Dr. Ztrangelove has zpoken

Really, its just there to protect the innocent. If someone doesn't know what offline mode is or how to put a device in this mode, disable the device. If in doubt, axe zit or exit.
