Have you been on a Delta flight lately? You’re lucky to be able sit down – Delta seems to be in permanent Chapter 11 and the bulk of their flights are handled by their “partner” ComAir, whose planes are little more than flying darts. On my return trip from Chicago last week, I asked the attendant for some vodka ($5 for one of those mini-bottles?) and she relied “They didn’t give me any alcohol for this flight.”

WiFi? it’s only a matter of time before Delta makes pressurization optional.

WTF is the point of offering wifi if the TSA are confiscating laptops at the gate.

But yesterday on CNN they said that VOIP calls would not be allowed from inside the plane!

Why they forbid that????

If it is because of terrorist talking, they can always use instant messaging.

“More airliners offering onboard WiFi”
“The service will cost $9.95 on flights of three hours or less, and $12.95 on longer flights.”
Soo.. they are offering or selling?

And what is wifi for if they take our laptop at the airport? hehe
