Inflight Wi-Fi is an amenity which has become progressively more important to me over the years, to the point that it largely factors into which airline I fly (particularly on weekdays, when I hate being disconnected).

So yes, slightly painful, but had free wifi the entire time I wanted it.
Pro tip right there... 🙂
I wonder what the price difference for the airline is "Free-wifi" vs. a bottle of Krüg, totally tax-free ?
For instance spirits in HKG are cheaper than wine - downtown market.....
Has Qatar airways added wifi to all their planes as they have said by June ? I'm flying end of September on Qatar from Johannesburg to Istanbul and want to know if the 777-300er has wifi
Flew QR A380 last week, wifi pricing is time and data limited, the 15mn free is only 10MB not really usable.
Does anyone know if the wifi update has been completed on the boeing 777-300er?
And almost 2 years later and their 777s are still without wifi. Their utilization schedule makes this such a tough thing to happen.
