Probably the same thing that happened to the Malaysian plane.

A certain radio presenter would have a field day.

20 for 24 hours is actually better than I was expecting

The Backwards Man

I'm following you on flightradar. Flying awfully low for a transatlantic flight?

El Weirdo

Have you seen this episode?

Ben D Bus

Do they let you watch pr0n on the wifi or is it all blocked?

Clear air turbulence.

Unpleasant stuff over the mid-atlantic. Tie everything down!

El Weirdo

You wanna keep it crispy while keeping the breast medium, I would suggest hitting it with about 250C for 20 mins then lowering for 180 for about 45 mins

It's capped at 1Mbps. Although haven't done speedtest, haven't tried youtube yet. Will try now.

kinklee7

Whats the flight no ? I will switch on Flight Radar and stick pins in the screen !

El Weirdo

What would happen if a trolley dolly caught you watching this...

With the consent use of Wi-Fi surely the battery in your selected device is not long for this world?

digitalninja

Gary Oldman is leading a special task force to take over the AC just about now...

I would rather iron my nutsack whilst pouring sulphuric acid on my eyeballs than fly 11 hours.

I am actually shocked at the price myself for the Wifi - Very reasonable

Tickets for that route are fierce expensive.

Work trip?

Why aren't Aer Lingus marketing the **** out of this? Relatively cheap WiFi and power to keep you juiced. Would sway me if I was caught between two airlines, (unless of course they are all doing it)
