Live TV?

Can you not watch live TV on DL? Has everything gone to Delta Studio? I have an upcoming trip from ATL to HNL and don't want to miss some football.

If you are on the ATL-HNL non-stop, there's no satellite receiver for DISH live TV on the A330's.

If you are connecting, you can watch live TV if you are on a DISH equipped aircraft. Unfortunately, they don't seem to carry an ABC channel which can present problems getting some college games on Saturday (found that out this past Saturday on a DTW-SLC flight).

I think the only ones left with Dish are the 767 and some older 75V.

The 737-700s and -800s with AVOD also feature Dish network, and if I recall correctly, Delta intends to install the service on the new 737-900s, as well.

No, they did not. the 73Gs and 738s also have it, and the 739ERs will soon get it after certification. And actually, the 75Vs do not have it; the 75Xs do which include both older and newer aircraft (almost all of the newest PMDL 752s are 75Xs).

Even if you are on an aircraft equipped with a live TV system, the live TV won't work when you are over water. For this reason DL makes the AVOD movies free on all equipped aircraft flying to Hawaii and the Caribbean.
