A less observable jamming means is to just bring a key chain penlight 
aboard and aim it at the light.  If the light has a suction cup mount it 
can be mounted to the arm of the chair.  For more clandestine use a two 
position switch on the light could activate an IR laser/led, shining 
through the same lens, for light/dark cabin situations.
