December 21, 200916 yr We were flying home and I just had to try the new in flight wifi delta has now. Very cool and fast! It is free if you guys are flying delta between now and dec 31. Just enter DELTATRYGOGO (all caps) in the promo code. Free for a 1.5 hr session. We got the code and it works for everyone.
December 21, 200916 yr Author Thanks man.... I just get giddy over technology! We should be landing in Atlanta in less than 1 hr
December 22, 200916 yr Author I just wonder how in the heck they get that link to an aircraft like that....
December 22, 200916 yr Really easy, the signal is blocked above 2000ft by most cell companies via a program in the cell sites, so I'm assuming they do it with net as well.
December 22, 200916 yr WOW nice. I will be flying home on the new years eve, hopefully KLM will have that !

That is what I thought too. They do not turn it on until you get over 10k and then turn it off when you go below. It has to either be a cell connections. I checked the latency via a speed test and it was only 44 ms so it could not be satellite. . I read about this a few months ago. The first flight with it was sometime around Oct I think. Now all the Delta MD88s seem to have it. http://www.gogoinflight.com/
