said by Nick :Interesting way of trying to force people into using a product. I don't agree with it by any means. I wish free/discounted wi-fi was available at all airports and paid for or sponsored by the airlines. With winter months approaching it would be great to minimize the boredom in a delay situation by surfing the net or chatting with friends/coworkers. What really sucks about airport wifi during summer and winter storm seasons is that, at each airport, you have to pay a fee. So, if your initial departure is delayed and any of your connecting flights is also delayed, you have to pay the fee at each freaking airport. Blows bigtime. Personally, I'd rather have the airline I'm on sponsor it. That way, assuming I'm on a consistent carrier, I'd just have to punch in the SSID that's on my ticket at each airport and bingo, I've got connectivity without the aggravation of "paying twice".
