Elytra deactivates upon hitting water. Upon coming in contact in water mid-flight with an elytra, one will stop their flying even if going rather quickly through it. This would not normally be an issue if firework boosts were not a thing. Launching from the water is convenient if not entertaining sometimes when the user carries many fireworks.
Steps to reproduce
Fly elytra through water
Come in contact with water

Since in the Java version the report is closed as "Works As Intended", and in the bedrock version it is possible to fly in lava, I think that this is still a bug of the bedrock version.
In Minecraft Java Edition, the player can use the elytra and fireworks to fly underwater, but doesn't work on bedrock
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue has been closed as Works As Intended.
It's actually a bug that elytra can be used underwater in the Java edition (see ticket MC-97190).
