Global demand for in-flight broadband hits new heights

I remember reading some 5 or so years ago that some person discovery that installing a system for inflight WiFi on an airplane would cost $1,000. Today were charged $10 or more per flight for this service. This is a major income maker for all these mis-managed airlines who can't keep their heads above water. Sigh...again

A survey conducted by a global communications provider with a vested interest in a positive outcome?

Well, that must be impartial!

Many passengers are not looking forward to their neighbours 'Skyping' in a loud voice all the way from New York to Tokyo.

Sad. As unpleasant as air travel can be, I relished the one place where I could really disconnect for a day. No phone calls, no emails. Just being. Just me and my crappy meal on my little food tray in economy. It was bliss.

Don't forget having to deal with your seatmates with nothing else to do
