    I'm creating this thread using wireless broadband inflight to Seattle with SAS. I am currently 36000ft above NE Canda, no outage yet. I'm also connected to by VPN at work. Amazing.

    That's pretty cool.. Normally they have very limited access on flights. Have a safe trip.

    Landed safely - Thx.

    It was available in all classes although there are power outlet in Business aswell. Cost was $30 for the full flight (mine was 10 hours to Seattle) or an alternative of $10 for 30 minutes plus .25c there after.
