Rav Moshe Feinstein: Davening On An Airplane
If a person needs to daven on an airplane it is permitted to daven Shomeh Esrei sitting down if standing up is difficult and it will disturb him from davening with the proper Kavanah. However he should stand up prior to the parts of the Shomeh Esrei that require bending down. After he bends down he may sit down again. If the plane lands before the end of the Zman Tefillah he is not obligated to daven again even though he davened while sitting. (Igros Moshe OC 4:20)
