If I recall correctly, signing up with a credit card is nearly instantaneous. For US domestic business travel, I highly recommend a T-Mobile HotSpot subscription because they partner with Starbucks, so nearly all Starbucks locations (except those inside airports) have T-Mobile HotSpot. They also partner with other chains as well (e.g., Hyatt hotels), but Starbucks are nearly ubiquitous. International roaming with T-Mobile HotSpot partners used to be free, alas no longer, but the pricing still seems competitive vs. paying the local WiFi provider directly for their day pass.

hey thanks for your comment

i also was thinking about subscribing a t mobile hotspot ticket, which is a really good deal.

Moreover I complain that the airlines take it too easy in giving service! Of course if every company cuts free alcoholic beverages, free (hot)-meals in coach, and a good lounge service, all others will follow! They even like it, so they can spare money! The clue is, that a CCL/FCL ticket and even some booking classes in coach aren't cheaper than 20-30 years ago! We are the customers which gives us the right to choose the airline, but the airlines they can do whatever they want!!! Cut service, unfirendly staff, unprofessional bubblegum chewing flight attendants,...

Anyone can give me a hint if there is a comercial us carrier which is famous for really good, all inclusive service?
