I am in an airplane

In flight Wi-Fi = one of great 21st century technical advances.

Hello from 20k feet or so above Josua Tree NP

Can you see Gram Parson's ashes from there?

Parsons's

Parsons's disease

Only been to the cave once- but I sorta know where it is in relation to everything..

Now over I-17 corridor in AZ. No hollering kids. Woman seated next to me is reading self-help books and writing furiously into a journal.

Busy skies. Just spotted an AA 757 haulin westbound - 1000ft below and maybe a half mile to port

errr... 5 years older thread recently revived too!:

I'm on a plane..

Ha! Didn't think to check... Can't wait until Zing gets searching rolled in. Way too much confusion and Steve Miller on other thread.

Window seat + no one sitting next to me = A winner is me!

what airlines do this

Delta and American so far I think. I'm sure the rest can't be far behind

Virgin America is being sponsored by google from now through the end of the year. After 1/1/10 it will be offered for a fee.

From what it looks like, the fee is $10 per flight.

I think Lufthansa has it also.

Repping for GoGo on Virgin America. Only 5.95 on redeye flights. But I'm only on the thing because the seat doesn't tip far enough back for me to sleep.

Virgin America is a wonderful airline...if only it wasn't terribly frustrating to book!!

Is it? Why?

I am in an airplane and my seat assignment is a Beautiful South song.

"Yes sir, 'Old Red Eyes is Back.' Free drinks from start to finish."

Free Wi-Fi on JetBlue. Better bandwidth than in the BUR terminal too.

BA has removed almost all half-decent inflight films to try and get you to buy WiFi for Netflix. I have just watched Tomb Raider out of spite and damn it if I won’t sit through the giant gorilla movie with Dwayne Johnson as well.

Last time I flew I paid for earphones for the fucking A-Team movie just to try and distract myself from fear of flying

try dramamine

Who charges for earphones still???

It was a budget airline

Oh, I always keep an extra set in my passport pouch just in case, or so I can start watching before they hand them out.

I assumed I wasn't gonna watch a movie but I was freaking out so badly I got desperate

I hate flying so much I get carsick on the way to the airport so I have to take a dramamine and then my doctor prescribes me 10 xanax a year just for flying. I activate all of this with wine.

I don't know how it works in the UK but I've already decided if I ever get the chance to fly again I'll have to go see if my GP can give me *something* to get me thru it

I am pretty sure they will do that in the UK too.

I am now twelve and a half hours into this flight and should probably get something to knock myself out the next time I do this trip.

what? are you flying around the globe ? why such a long time?

I always download movies to my tablet prior to flying.

That would have made sense.

xp, I was flying from Buenos Aires to London directly, which is about thirteen and a half hours. BA only offers one longer - London to Santiago.

I am sorry for your experience! It must have thought you "Ugh why this?!"
You should go into suspended animation for such long journeys

I always take dramamine

solitaire ftw
