Here is how to download Spotify music before entering a flighting mode.

Step 1Launch Spotify app on your mobile phone or tablet.

Step 2Hit on "Library" >  "Setting" menu --> tap on "Playback" --> switch on "Offline".

Method 2: Play Spotify Music on Airplane Mode without Premium

With Spotify Free, you can get access to Spotify's catalog of over 100 million tracks on your computer or tablet at no cost. And you are allowed to play any song or playlist with ads, but only when the internet is connected. If you want to play Spotify music in airplane mode to kill time, especially during a long journey, or other conditions without Wi-Fi or cellular connection, you will need to buy Spotify Premium. Otherwise, you can use a third-party app – Sidify Music Converter (Windows | Mac) to download songs, playlists, or podcasts from Spotify to digital copy at first, then transfer the downloaded Spotify music to your mobile phones or MP3 players.
