Launch of ViaSat3 F2 had another deferral this morning due to weather and an ongoing water valve issue.
Still waiting on a new launch window.

Toying with booking Qantas Sydney-Santiago, Chile on 787

Anyone know if Wifi will be possible by March? 14 hour flights with no Wifi is not an option for me.

Qantas of course does not believe it flies to Chile - so their info is useless -

I wonder what 787 routes would even have much coverage atm. Maybe just some parts of the transpacific? Europe maybe once the satelite is launched and fully operational.

The Pacific Ocean is completely covered. To Europe though there isn’t any coverage till around the Middle East.

However keep in mind there is exactly 1 789 that has the wifi hump. Maybe 2 or 3 at most by March. Your odds will be low.
