with how much you have to pay for the seat in the first pace in the US compared to otehr countries wifi should be included... but it isn't... yay capitalism stopped flying years ago thanks to gouging prices and tsa so no skin off my teeth but would be nice if we had some competition liek viable high speed rail or legislation to stop price fixing like they do now .. but no i guess wifi onboard needs streamlioning first...
