I don’t get why people treat flying so ceremoniously; it’s a glorified bus ride. I still got shit to do, and I need access to resources. It is a waste of time to burn 6 hours when flying cross country for nothing. I could get a lot done in that time.
I do work in the air. I've had other passengers complain about my keyboard volume. I also now pace it, police it and don't try to over-do it: The spam-can is not condusive to good work outcomes always. Its ok for reading and reflection, and oftentimes they don't depend on connectivity.
I agree with parent, planes are a great space to focus for me. I don't think there's anywhere else that I've done so much heavy reading. The lack of connection and the white noise of the engines make it the perfect place to zone in (or zone out!).
I've been on two cruises, and in both cases, the WiFi was ridiculously expensive. Like...$1.00/minute expensive.
Which makes no sense that they'd charge per minute and not per megabyte.
Even the WiFi package didn't mean you got unlimited WiFi, it just got you a bulk discount on minutes.
