First of all we have to be wary of the cost: Over $17 on a recent United Airlines flight from Los Angeles to New York City. The flight lasts about six hours and the average life of a laptop computer battery is less than four, and many aircrafts don’t have electrical plugs. Plus, of the six hours onboard, the Wi-Fi can only be utilized for about four since the service kicks in at an altitude of 10,000 feet (3,000 meters). Under these conditions, a passenger could take advantage of the W-Fi service for, at the most, three hours, mainly to go over a few e-mails and check the news headlines. This means that the cost for the service is close to $6 per hour, which is not bad if one could be charged by the time used, and not for the full fee.
