Wifi on board
« on: June 15, 2014, 04:22:55 PM »
I have heard that there's airlines offering wifi on international flights.

If there is such a thing,what are the airlines and is it only for premier classes?

Just a word about CAPS.

I had a customer who was emailing me about a flight in All Caps. The first thing that came to mind was, what a jerk, I really don't want to deal with him. Then he asked me to call him and I braced myself for someone who was just going to yell and scream. First thing he said was that I am really old so I write in all caps because I can see the words much better. He turned out to be a real nice guy.

That's silly.
Most people who write in caps all the time aren't yelling. :)  They just don't know any better. (Which doesn't make it any less annoying)
Or can't see.

Speaking of Wifi on board, I'd like to know why it's not more readily available on all flights and why they charge for it when flying First.

It's very expensive to install.

Iridium is bringing the prices down though soon so expect to see it on every plane in 3-5 years.

That is an awesome question which I always wonder about.

Anyone have experience with wifi on Southwest? Can it handle connecting to a VPN?
