In-Flight Broadband A 'Gogo' > Sigh

Re: Sigh

Well you forget something manhole, MANY flights are not nonstop. My question then begins, is this for only ONE leg of the flight or both? I mean if it's 10 dollars each time you make a connection, that's not cheap. 20 dollars to use internet for 3-4 hrs? I was basing my facts on the basis you must change flights. Nonstop flights are only usually out of major areas and are much more expensive. Hence, the real question begins, is this for both parts of the journey or a single way?

I would assume it will not carry over, but who knows. If that is the case, use it on the longer of the two flights

I would have loved to have that service on my 14 hr. NON-STOP flight from NY's JFK to Tokyo on my way to Bangkok, another 7 hr NON-STOP FLIGHT last December!
Would love to have that option on the many NON-STOP flights I take to Tucson, Las Vegas, LA & Frisco too!
Oh and those NON-STOPS aren't always the most expensive. Check Jet Blue for one example.
Any business travelers wanna chime in?

I'm not saying there aren't low cost nonstops. However, my main point is that MOST are not low cost and MOST originate from only major hubs. Therefore, the bulk majority have to deal with transfers when flying. Who is going to spend 10 dollars PER FLIGHT to use this service being the avg flight maybe 1-1.5 hrs before transfer. This is by no means a bargain. Sure, it might get cheaper as it's widely adopted. Yet, at this point, the market seems to be business travelers only.
