Bummer

I received this email from Con­nex­ion by Boe­ing which said that Boe­ing would be dis­con­tin­u­ing Con­nex­ion by Boe­ing. The upside is that pas­sen­gers will be able to use the ser­vice free of charge from now till the end of the year depend­ing on the air­line you were trav­el­ling with.

I remem­ber using the ser­vice on Sin­ga­pore Air­lines at US$26.95 for 24hrs, which is pretty worth it if you were on an 18 hour flight, I think. There was no indi­ca­tion on their web­site today on whether the free ser­vice was available.

    I’ve never had a chance to use the in-flight inter­net ser­vice, even though it was touted to be avail­able on the Exec­u­tive Econ­omy flights (Until you look at the fine fine print and it says it’s only on Lon­don to Sin­ga­pore flights).

    What a great con­cept though… maybe if they offered it more, more peo­ple would have used it.

    I cer­tainly would have and I flew home to Sin­ga­pore twice this year with a hus­band who would have paid for it too. That’s two whop­ping wi-fi users dangit!

    It’s avail­able for free till year end yes, on the 744’s. Usu­ally they make announce­ment about it. Then when the magic word “FREE” come out, all the lap­tops will be whipped out. Even PSP can surf too hehe, but it’s a pain cuz no key­board la.

    Only on the 744s huh? I’m fly­ing later this year and I’m not sure what air­craft I’ll be on. Prob­lem is, when you fly econ­omy, you can’t plug in your lap­top to the power sup­ply to enjoy more than a cou­ple of hours of wi-fi.
