AA WiFi Making Up For It’s Many Shortcomings

american-airlines-wifi

David here, live….reporting from my NY – LA American Airlines flight.
Seems like just yesterday when I wrote about the the launch of their inflight Gogo WiFi service. Fast forward four months and I’m video chatting with Glu while he works on our new site design. Nice.
Overall, I’m quite impressed with the service. Video-chatting was near flawless, only getting slightly laggy when Glu took a hand-roll break outside.
Speakeasy’s speed check returned the following download/upload speeds: 1932kbps/266 on an LA server and 1288/307 on a NY server. Not too bad at all.
Make the internet free when you check a bag ($15 for one, $25 for an additional) and AA, you’ll have one very happy customer.
….and below my friends, might just be the first “I’m on a boat/I’m on a plane” wireless interaction….tinyComb wins.
