Title: The Mile High Club
Post by: The Camel on June 12, 2009, 01:52:51 AM
Making this post from seat 3C of a Virgin America flight from San Francisco to Las Vegas.

Just played a heads up on stars and checked out JP's progress in the PLHE final at the WSOP.

The wonders of modern technology huh?

Pretty cool imo.

Firstly not a brag...I lost the heads up match :(

There was wifi throughout the whole plane, not just first class. It was a really solid connection too. Never lost connection the whole trip (which is not the case when using the internet on trains in my experience).

I read Virgin America will have wifi on all it's planes by the end of the year, but no sign of it on Virgin Atlantic yet.

Do they charge extra for it or is it inclusive?

What a great idea. About time too.

It was $8 for the whole flight, which was a bit expensive for an hour flight, but not bad value if you were flying from coast to coast imo.

Also for regular travellers you could buy a months pass for $30, which could work out very cheap if you fly enough.
