how was the new blue mood lighting utilized during the flight? Blue ceilings And walls at the same time? Or white on ceilings with blue walls/ vis-a-versa? Is it just on or off or is their a dim blue/white like on the sky interior?
in reference to the gogo issues, did this preclude streaming the Alaska beyond entertainment?
The new seats are better than the 737 F cabin seats, in my opion.
They're obviously new, have more support, are a little bit more firm, and have easier-to access power ports. The foot rest makes a big difference in comfort as well. I prefer the new Airbus F cabin seat's cupholders and tray/table setup as well. There are small pockets on the seat side interiors as well for placing items like your phone.
I don't plan to sit in Row 1 anymore though.
I don't recall how the lighting was used, as the flights were redeye/early morning.
For Gogo, they were recommending passengers download the Gogo streaming app to watch movies prior to boarding at the gate. I don't know how well the app worked. I was given a Digital Player/Tablet in F after asking about the non-functioning Wifi service.
