Two minor issues:
1) I have had glitches drop-out in some (northern areas)
2) The usual SAS problem about starting up their internet and entertainment service long after take-off and shutting it down long before landing. I still do not understand the reason for this.
Yes, that's annoying, especially that they turn off the power. I often have to ask them to turn it on.
But the LAN seems to work on the ground and you have to wait until the aircraft has to reach a certain altitude. I got the impression that the crew does not do anything to activate the connection.
