Real World Inflight WiFi, anybody used it?

I'm off too New York in a couple of Months. Woo Hoo! :topsy_turvy:

I've booked my flights with Delta and noticed it says there is WiFi on my aircraft (757-200).

Having a search it seems this is quite popular over in the US and as a lot of people here at MSFlights are from the states I wonder if anybody has used it.

There is no service from the UK that I have flown on yet that has WiFi, so this would be the first time I've used it.

I noticed Delta charge $16 for a 24hr period for the service while the service provider Gogoair charge $8, so any reviews of how good it is or recommendations of where to buy it would be appreciated.

Despite its availability on some of my most recent flights, I haven't yet taken the opportunity to try it; I, too, am curious to hear from those who have experience to share regarding speed, reliability, ease-of-use, price, etc. Knowing which carrier, provider, and aircraft type the experience came from would also be helpful.

We used it on Southwest (737-800). It was a little slow because 20-40 people were using it simultaneously but it functions. It was 5 dollars or so to activate it on your device for the flight. If you don't like reading a book or something and your flight is longer than 2.5 hours, it's probably a good idea to get it so you can keep entertained
