I am guessing this may limit future payouts for lack of free WiFi for the inflight entertainment. "‡ Wi-Fi Internet on this flight is limited to within the continental United States. Depending on the route plan,connectivity may not be available along the coast of the U.S. or in Canada."
Interesting. I just got off a flight from YVR-SFO. Wi fi didn't work until the last 30 minutes of the flight, which gave about 10 minutes on my laptop until they started securing the cabin for landing. I don't recall this disclaimer about flying along the coast before. I don't expect it to work to Hawaii, or in Canada, but how far out to sea could we have been when flying alongside Washington, Oregon, and California?
Not sure whether it's worth an email to 1K Voice?
