American Airlines DFW-NRT
I can confirm that using this method of access via iPass through the web browser (not the app) works on American Airlines 61, DFW-NRT. It's a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to WiFi working or not with this on American Airlines since they have three different providers currently, Panasonic, ViaSat and GoGo.

QR not working - tried on 777-QSuites where they say they have “super wifi” and on A380. In both cases I could only choose between complimentary 30 mins and paid 1hr/3hrs/full flight but but there was no any option to log in via any “roaming partner”.... will try on 330 in few hours and on 787 next week - I will let you know but I don’t have high expectations.....

Worked beautifully for me on AA international. Used recently on LAX-LHR, MIA-MAD, ORD-CDG. Haven’t tried AA domestic yet.

I used only on my iPhone, and there’s actually an iPass app you can autoconfigure while on the ground. I was also at a public place and it found a hotspot I could use as well! I’ll plan to use the Mac app to configure for my laptop.

A little finicky- I would connect to WiFi, then connect to a “known” working website such as aa.com, then open the iPass app and click “connect”.

There seems to be a 4GB cap on the app? But you can change the cap as well with an option in the app? Anyone know about this? I don’t think this limits the use but is mainly for your own reference...

It's not a cap. It's just an option you can set for your own convenience, such as when using cellular data that is limited each billing period.

Strange. Did not work for me. Someone else specifically reached out to iPass and was told does not work on AA gogo.

Did you auto-login with the app and captcha, or using credentials through the web portal?

Credentials on laptop. App on phone. Didn’t try to use both at same time. Have saved so much money with this!

Failed for me this week on SQ A350 - app didn't recognize the wifi spot, and credentials had no ipass option. (2 weeks ago SQ a350 worked)
Then failed again on SQ A380 - ipass option on portal, but credentials failed with LDAP credentials invalid option.
So I slept a bit more
