Gogo wifi holiday prices

Has anyone signed up for the 2 or 3-day holiday price packs? There are few details, but I assume these are for any 2 or 3 days within the promotion period, not sequential.

I haven't used the service yet, but have IAD-LAX flights today and the Jan 1 red eye.

Pretty attractive pricing in my opinion, and FYIW in the past, I have had luck having Gogo reissue codes that you don't expect to get around to using before end of the period.

One other way to save money. Buy a Chromebook..
You can buy an Acer Chromebook for $199 and get 12 Gogo passes.
I gave a couple for Christmas. Yes, I know Chrome OS has limitations....but... these people are going to use them for internet access and video.

Yes, I bought a 3-pack a few weeks ago. They can be used any 3 days, need not be sequential. Once you buy it, when you log in airborne, you'll see an option to redeem if you want.

Or you can try to resell them at a 50% loss or so and still be ahead.
(Although our company has one account that everyone knows the pw to. However, we have to put in a spreadsheet when we are going to use it in order to have only 1 person at a time use it.)

Nice offer ... I suppose if you know what you want to use it for during a flight

I'm getting real computing done.

The gogo is working well ! Glad I paid up the $14. I wonder if it'll work on the next leg LAX-SAN

Anyone want to test a few codes I have expiring 12/31? No guarantee they are unused I went through them in haphazard way, PM if you want to give it a try. You will need to be at 10K feet before you get to test they work (day passes).

I have two left in my account that I bought during this promo. It's possible to gift them right? They'll be expiring soon and I won't be flying again until the end of January.

Silly question, but how do we give them to someone else? I have a couple left over in my account, but there are no codes associated with them that I can hand out.

I was able to turn on my laptop for 10-15 mins before the decent rules kicked in (no wifi)

We had a 2 year old that screamed the entire flight. The FA designed to get this family off the flight first, but it backfired, as the screaming kid was in front of the door, and no one heard the ground crew give the OK knocks saying it was time to open and unload ... took another 5 mins

I'm not sure you can, not without giving away the logon credentials for your Gogo account.

What I would suggest is going to https://custhelp.gogoinflight.com/ and click the "Chat with us" link at the top. The last time I had a question, I did this, and I had my answer within a minute or two.
