What Each Airline Offers

American Airlines

Gogo Wi-Fi is available on all Boeing 767-200 and select MD80 and 737 flights.

Delta Air Lines

Gogo Wi-Fi is available on most flights, but look for the Wi-Fi onboard sign or ask at the gate.

JetBlue

JetBlue is the only carrier offering anything free, although it's not what you typically think of as Wi-Fi. JetBlue's BetaBlue, an Airbus A320 used on some transcontinental flights, provides access to e-mail accounts and allows passengers to shop on Amazon.com, but there's no surfing the Internet. Sure, it's not a lot, but it's free.

Southwest Airlines

Southwest has partnered with Row 44 to offer satellite-delivered broadband Wi-Fi, which isn't available on all planes. Prices range from $2 to $12 per flight, depending on distance and device, and content is filtered. They also don't permit bandwidth hogs, so passengers will likely not be able to download video "to preserve a high quality experience for all users onboard."

United

Gogo Wi-Fi is available on all premium transcontinental flights between John F. Kennedy International and Los Angeles International or San Francisco International airports. If you are not going from New York to California, you may be out of luck.

Virgin America

Gogo Wi-Fi is available on all flights.
