Hi,

I'd like to get input on the quality/reliability of VX in-flight Wi-Fi. I found this thread from March, which is not promising, though apparently, VX will be upgrading their Wi-Fi in 2012:

My husband will be flying ORD-LAX in Feb 2012 and is deciding btwn UA exit row (he's a 1P and can book exit row for the time being) and VX Main Cabin. In-flight Wi-Fi is the only attraction of VX for him (unless VX has some other perks of which I'm unaware), so he would only want to fly VX if the Wi-Fi is reliable. Even if the Wi-Fi is reliable, he is still unsure which to pick since he would get several more inches of legroom in UA E+. He's 6'2", so that's nothing to sneeze at.

According to SeatGuru, the seat pitch in the UA 752 E+ would be 36":

and the seat pitch on the VX flight would be 32-33":

Is the SeatGuru info accurate?

I'd appreciate your input/advice. thanks
