Tommorow is the new era. Just prepare for 2012, the airline Provide Wifi in Flight. It means: Throughout the Continental United aircraft will be equipped with a WiFi-based satellite technology.


Many airline passengers are looking for ways to spend time while flying across the inter-state, either by reading
or watching movies. But, now, on a plane owned by United Continental, there are plans to enable Wifi, so passengers can spend the time fly by surfing.
Shareholders of United Continental announced a partnership with Panasonic Avionics company to provide WiFi access to passengers during flight. This service is available in more than 300 flights.
It will begin in mid-2012. At the end of 2015, the entire fleet of aircraft will be equipped with a WiFi-based satellite technology.
Such technology is Panasonic Ku, a satellite technology that offers better speed than the connection from the mainland, with Gogo Inflight Internet service. Some companies that use this Gogo service of U.S. Airways, American Airlines, Delta, AirTrans, and Virgin America.
With high speed, United Continental plans wireless streaming of video content. Meanwhile, airlines can direct passengers to watch the entertainment options during the flight with Wifi connection, such as through the streaming service Netflix or Hulu Plus in a tablet, smartphone or laptop computer.
Panasonic system will be installed in a Boeing 747, 757, 767, 777, and 787 aircraft like Airbus 319 and 320. This announcement while just across the fleet in two companies.
Continental Airlines had previously announced that in early January 2012, 200 aircraft currently equipped with Direct TV access degan Wifi upgrade.
United Continental shareholder has not provided pricing information such Wifi service. In-flight WiFi service costs are usually around U.S. $ 10 to U.S. $ 50 to access the laptop, and $ 5 to U.S. $ 20 to access the smartphone.
JetBlue is one of the airlines that offer free WiFi access, which is limited to instant messaging, email, and browsing the website.
While Southwest does not provide full in-flight Internet access, WiFi only aircraft allowed to connect to the portal games, shopping and flight status tool.
Was a surprise when many airlines do not provide free Wifi service to attract more passengers and fill the empty seats. (Source: Digital Trends)
