I'm an airline loyalist... Sticking with a carrier in the interest
of accumulating miles that I never seem to use anyways. It may be time
to switch tho.
I'm currently over Utah at 37k feet aboard a Virgin America flight. I decided to give them a go given all of the recent press and their promise to 'make flying fun again'. So far, this has indeed been fun.
Some of the perks have become the new norm. In flight satellite TV,
a surplus of MP3's and on-demand content are almost expected in this
day and age. But it's the availability of wifi that has me trying out a
new carrier. Especially for such long flights, being available and
engaged in real time not only makes me more productive, but also makes
the time... well, fly.
Oh yeah, and the ability to order food / snack / drinks when I want it is pretty cool too.
Not to mention, how cool is the mood lighting? ;) Now if I'd only packed my leisure suit.
