Surely, you’re joking! :dubious:
When Ursa Major is no longer visible off your starboard wing! :eek:
Being a SDMB mod I presume you got to fly first class. ![]()
You plan to update the thread title on the flight to Taipei ?
Are you sure the flight is not deviating from its flight path? Keep watching the flight map very closely… Post immediately if the flight takes a 90-degree turn over open seas.
And, of course, this guy.
JohnT: your link gives me “forbidden”.
In the spirit of “you know who else?”
in air refueling? holding pattern?
Strangely enough, it’s the same picture only smaller.
here’s the other window seat I was expecting.
As a mod you don’t know NSA shares data with Cecil?
I am serious, & stop calling me Shirley!

I would like to know why anyone would pay $7 to use the internet on a PHX/LAX flight.
New York to LA? Maybe, if i didn’t have a book to read, or if i had some urgent work that required a connection. LA to Indonesia? Sure. But not for a flight that’s barely in the air for an hour.
I love the internet. I spend hours a week on the internet. I can also afford $7 quite easily. It’s more the principles of the matter. I take a certain amount of satisfaction in being able to live without the internet when i fly, and i also object to paying seven bucks for an hour of something that i get for less than two bucks a day when i’m at home.
I was going to make a joke about “paying $7 to browse the Dope, but won’t pay twice that to support the website” but noticed the OP is a moderator. Dammit.
You still up there?
Man! I hate long flights!
If that’s for all legs of the trip, it’s a pretty good deal.
Yeah, if it included the international flight as well, it’s OK. But my bet is that it’s not.
United, for example, prices internet by segment:
In my experience, most airlines do this.
You should have landed already, but maybe my timezones are messed up.
I do the Seattle to Taipei flight a lot. The biggest pain is waiting for that 1;00am departure.
Water, soda, juices, & champagne (straight, in a cup, or mimosas) were the drinks on a late morning regional flight of < 1 hour.
Crossing the Atlantic, we were offered a choice of drinks, including red, white, whiskey (Dewar’s) & something else alcoholic. To accompany our hot lunch, all of the aforementioned, with refills. They also walked thru with some after-meal alcohol but I could not see what the bottles were. Then there was also a hot snack about 1-1½ hrs before landing…& this was all in coach!
If only Lufthansa was decent with my luggage! :mad:
