Yes, they do work internationally. Tried and tested on my trip to/from ICN this month. Per Gogo: "With the Gogo Preferred Program, Card Members will be able to use each pass for inflight Wi-Fi internet access on any Gogo equipped flight segment, including international flights."

Dumb question... but can you purchase while in flight? Taking off tomorrow, itinerary says flight has international wifi, yet no obvious way to purchase a pass anywhere on Delta's site.

It's under the "Trip Extras" when you click on a trip itinerary. I normally just wait till in flight though since I don't use them all the time.

Thanks for replying. Yes, I see a little chart toward the bottom, under "passenger information", but the "trip extras" column is blank for all legs of the itinerary. I take it these passes can be bought while in-flight? If so, I guess I'll just wait.

Yes, as I said, I normally just buy in flight when needed. What type of equipment are you flying, and we can tell you if it has wifi or not.

Ok, can confirm wifi over international waters, not blazing fast, but ok for light work.
