I did get PANYNJ media to acknowledge my email asking about this. They have not responded since.

A lot are, but a good number are moving to Panasonic's ARC system as well

Once again, my dude, open gangway is not a new thing. It exists globally. This is not a real problem. It's fine. Smells are not different or special in NYC.

Spoken truly as someone who has clearly never been on an open gangway train because it does not work that way

Other reason I avoided this place was lack of streaming on TVs, which they do have now. But the WiFi is so bad if streams in like 480p

They don’t even offer that!

I avoided staying here for 2 years because of this. It used to be 0 Mbps.

I can only assume I’ll be paying for this early arrival on the return flight later this week?

I was able to do a FaceTime call to my friend’s phone right next to me in row 20. It didn’t just work, it worked exceptionally well. The latency rivals traditional 5G networks.

Also, don’t do voice/video calls in-flight.

Intelsat’s multi-orbit ESA system was the best in-flight Wi-Fi I have ever used, until today.

This is my first flight with SpaceX Starlink installed and it’s really in a league of its own. Low latency, high speeds, and consistent. I just wish it was not a product of Musk 🫠

Ok, UA3688. Ok.

Straight to the runway with no real delay and away we go! I’m as shocked as you are.

We’re in the air, Christina!

lol I know I know but if you’re here reading this you’re cool I trust you

Hopefully they’re actually fixing it instead of it just being weird
