Joining maghrib and esha salaah before boarding a flight

Q: Can one read his maghrib and esha salaah in the time of maghrib before boarding the aeroplane considering that it is quite difficult for one to read his esha salaah on the aeroplane especially when there is no salaah facility on the plane?

A: Both namaaz must be read in their fixed time.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
