M.I.S.S. Jet Set: Wi-Fi in the Sky. Jet Blue’s Beta Blue.
Saturday, March 8th, 2008
I had heard about JetBlue’s Beta Blue aircraft last month while flying out to NYC. Only one plane, called the BetaBlue aircraft, has the Wi-Fi capabilities to access the Internet in the sky. Can you imagine how much work or web-surfing you could get done cruising 10,000 feet in the sky!! On my most recent trip to NY I had the chance to fly on the BetaBlue plane and use the service. It was great to knock out a few emails before I fell asleep. This is a free service provided by JetBlue and LiveTV™, Yahoo!®, and BlackBerry®. JetBlue is the first domestic airline to offer this kind of connectivity to its customers, free of charge.
