Getting this thread back on track -- I remember the first time I saw live TV -- a Virgin America flight, IAD to LAX, and it made me wonder "what took so long for this technology!" Didn't realize that it would be expensive enough for the bean counters to eliminate it, though...

The live TV works on your personal device on planes without seatback screens which is when it was most helpful being stuck on LUS equipment.

1. nuts
2. ramekins

4. glassware
