United Airlines: misplaced priorities

United Airlines: misplaced priorities by justin.
Here in the "Red Carpet" waiting lounge at Los Angeles airport, there's a
giant flatscreen TV that no one is watching. Meanwhile, there's still no
wireless internet access in this place, and tons of folks looking at lonely
laptops.

Sell the TV, buy us some innernet!

I asked about this at the front desk here and they said the WiFi is held up
by a dispute with the airport. Funny how travel makes me care about these
things. I think I will return to my "Shaming of America" issue of the
Economist.

meanwhile, budget airline JetBlue has been offering free WiFi at their terminals for several years now.

Jah, jump ship! Start flying American! The Aadmiral's clubs all have wifi and once you have status on the airline they practically carry you around on a rickshaw while fanning you and feeding you grapes.
