As I noted on 6 April, when Alaska Airlines launched a new Web site that promised Internet service in the sky, it seemed its trial was going well: The company putout a press release today that said the test service (on a single plane) had 2,100 users over the last several weeks. Of those that used the service and filled out a survey, 96 percent would use it again, and 78 percent would be very or extremely likely to recommend it.
Alaska now says it's working on the pricing model. The company has partnered with Row 44 for its satellite-backed Internet service over Wi-Fi.
