Radio Network Node, User Equipment and Methods Performed Therein

A method performed by a user equipment (UE) for handling communication in a wireless communications network, the method comprising:

• transmitting, in a low activity radio resource control (RRC) state, a flight indication to a radio network node using a small data transmission (SDT) procedure, wherein the flight indication comprises one or more of the following:
• at least a part of a flight path report;
• an update to a flight path report, or an element of the flight path report;
• an indication of availability of flight path report;
• and
• an indication of update on flight path report or part of it.

A method performed by a radio network node for handling communication in a wireless communications network, the method comprising:

• at least a part of a flight path report;
• an update to a flight path report, or an element of the flight path report;
• an indication of availability of flight path report;
• and
• an indication of update on flight path report or part of it;
• and
• performing an action taking the flight indication into account.
