Remember, Alaska Airlines Kicks Off Its WiFi Service Today

It’s only a matter of time before we’ll look back on the year that was, and realize that 2009 was the year of in-flight WiFi. We’ll start taking it for granted, complain that it’s too slow, and demand it on all flights. However, for now, we’ll take what we can get, but we’re getting one step closer today when Alaska Airlines starts their first WiFi flight.

If your traveling from Seattle down to San Jose today, then you’ll have a shot to test out the latest offering from Row 44. The WiFi service will be launched on Boeing 737-700 planes, so we’re thinking that it’s lucky Flight 328 that leaves Seattle at 2:20 PM, PT. As long as there’s no equipment swap, that’s the only flight between the two cities that will use that type of plane.

The service will be free for the first two months while they work out all the bugs, so if you’re on board there’s no reason not to check it out. Most importantly, if you are able to experience it first hand, you have to tell us. You can send a tweet, send a tip, or just throw a comment below. You’ll be our hero—at least for this week.
