I've seen mixed reports online, it seems like the answer is NO, but then other sites seem to say that they have them on some planes. If they do, which planes/routes have wifi access?

They have them on the A350s, which fly SFO/LHR routes and sometimes make an appearance on PVG. I have yet to fly since the A350 was introduced to SFO so I don't know much about the reliability or cost but if anyone has please put some data points, thanks.

I remember it was available on the early 350 from MNL, but I didn't indulge since I was more interested in sleeping at that point so I can't vouch for actual internet access.

interested to hear if people actually enjoy internet access on a plane...I guess some people need it for work, but personally, I prefer not having it and just being able to relax.
I used it years ago (2006 on a TPAC flight) with Connexion installed when they decided to pull the plug and made it free for anyone who used it to the end of the year. It was a novel experience...messaging and a brief Skype with my wife from a plane 10km in the air over the Pacific Ocean was interesting, but the novelty soon wore off.
