Alaska Airlines Promises More In-Flight Wi-Fi, Delta Near 100

Alaska has launched a new marketing campaign, with in-flight Wi-Fi as one of its messages: I guess the company has made an informal decision, giving that its North of Expected ad campaign says that more in-flight Internet is on the way.

Alaska has a single plane wired up with Row 44's satellite-backed Internet service, while Southwest has about four craft with the same offering. Southwest Airlines is updating which routes have Wi-Fi via Twitter on a given day.

Meanwhile, Delta Airlines says it's a few days away from hitting 100 planes with Wi-Fi, which gets the airline more than a quarter of the way to its full mainline fleet deployment, expected for third quarter of this year.
