I find giving them a random made up coupon more of a gamble then trying to generate some new ending to the link for the survey.

Coupons I'm sure they can look up the conditions of it, unless it were to be a very long and complicated one which get generated for each person separately.

posting this in an extremely turbulent flight

 Lindsay: Welcome to Gogo. My name is Lindsay.
 Lindsay: Hello.
 Gogo user: good morning lindsay
 Lindsay: You are having an issue with a promotion code?
Gogo user: I received a coupon as a promotion a little while back to try out gogo internet. the code i received was deltatrygogo, but when i typed it in, it says that its invalid. is there anything you could do to help me?
 Lindsay: I can get you a new code.
 Gogo user: that would be amazing, thank you!
 Lindsay: Here is your code: 7276cqw6320cc7

so i'm right now using gogo. i tried using AAHP code, it was expired so opened a chat to the CS and it looked something like this:

Lindsay: Welcome to Gogo. My name is Lindsay.
Lindsay: Hello Cholentfresser.
Lindsay: How can I help you today?
Cholentfresser: Hi. i received a coupon code as a promotion to try out gogo internet. the code i received is AAHP, but when i typed it in, it says that it's invalid. is there anything you can do to help me?
Lindsay: The AAHP promotion has ended, that is why the code is not working.
Cholentfresser: :( is there any other code you can give me? i've never had the opportunity to try out gogo, i thought the code was active and i was soo excited to use it, and now it's not working...
Lindsay: I can get you a 50% off code if you would like to try the service out for half price.
Cholentfresser: i really appreciate you trying to help me, but i really can't afford to pay at this time...
Lindsay: Is it your birthday?
Cholentfresser: funny that you ask...i'm actually going home to celebrate my birthday with my family. my birthday is tomorrow :)
Lindsay: Great answer! I'll go ahead and get you on for free today. Do you have a Twitter account?
Cholentfresser: my friends are really pushing me to get one... but i dont' have one yet..
Lindsay: I was just wondering. Here is your code:7277fbn0239cc7
Lindsay: when you pick a pass you will enter it into the promotion code/pin box and click "apply"
Cholentfresser: OMG!!!!!! Lindsay, YOU ARE THE BEST!!!! thank you soooo much
Lindsay: You are welcome. Is there anything else I can help you with today?
Cholentfresser: no. that's it. thank you again. have a wonderful day!
Lindsay: Have a great day Cholentfresser. Happy early birthday! Thank you for choosing Gogo Inflight Internet. Happy travels!

Lindsay has disconnected.

Yup, guys, that's the way to do it!!!

So here's the follow up, i just got an email saying with the following:
You are invited to participate in a brief survey about your recent interaction with Lindsay, our GogoŽ Customer Care representative.

We realize your time is valuable and appreciate you taking the time to participate in our survey. In exchange for telling us about your Customer Care experience, we will send you an email containing a promotion code for a complimentary Gogo Inflight Internet session (up to $12.95) the next time you fly!
So i just flew yesterday and used my free code, and just to try, i made sure to open a chat with CS, i told them how valuble that internet session was, that i had time-sensitive business matters which i couldn't accomplish without them, etc. etc. etc. and sure enough, i just got an email from them:
"You are invited to participate in a brief survey about your recent interaction with Christy, our GogoŽ Customer Care representative.

We realize your time is valuable and appreciate you taking the time to participate in our survey. In exchange for telling us about your Customer Care experience, we will send you an email containing a promotion code for a complimentary Gogo Inflight Internet session (up to $12.95) the next time you fly!"

who knows, maybe i'll never have to  pay for gogo ;D

Flying AA now. I used the GOGO chat and spoke to Lindsay!

 Lindsay: Welcome to Gogo. My name is Lindsay.
 Lindsay: Hello elig770.
 elig770: Hi Lindsay!
 Lindsay: How can I help you today?
 elig770: So I'm trying to connect with a promo code I received and it's not working
 Lindsay: Ok, what is the code you are trying to use?
 elig770: HPAA
 Lindsay: We are no longer running that promotion.
 elig770: So it's expired?
 Lindsay: The code is no longer in use because the promotion ended 2 months ago.
 elig770: O. I haven't flown in a while... So I never ended up using it. I got the email about in in Feb. I think...
 Lindsay: Alright, what I can do is get you a new code for this flight.
 elig770: Wow that would be amazing! Thanks!
 Lindsay: Not a problem. Give me just a minute to grab that for you.
 elig770: K
 Lindsay: Here is your code: 7278cyd7478cc7
 Lindsay: You may use it on a pass of $12.95 or less.
 elig770: Thank you so much!
 Lindsay: You're very welcome. Is there anything else I can help you with today?
 elig770: That's all. Thanks again.
 Lindsay: Have a great day Eli! Thank you for choosing Gogo Inflight Internet. Happy travels!

Such as Lufthansa, and Singapore airlines.

Their website very not clear. Is there wifi on Lufthansa from JFK to FRA? Going on A380 one way and 747-400 the other on business.
According to seatguru, they only have on A330-300. But the site implies they have it elsewhere as well. Anyone have any experience recently on A380 or 747-400? Thanks.
