Alaska Airlines: Fleet Upgrades and Flight Innovation
Alaska Airlines signed an agreement with Gogo in August to add the 2Ku satellite internet connectivity service to a growing fleet of 218 Airbus A320s and Boeing 737s. That process will involve the replacement of antennas, along with the installation of new modems, wireless access points (WAPs) and new line replaceable units needed to swap out Gogo’s ATG-4 for 2Ku.

Great update. More information available.
That’s a terrifying thought. Is there any indication that such a system is being contemplated?
This sounds great, but when will prices actually drop? The tariff for connectivity for the duration of the flight is simply outrageous.
I ma not worried about paying for the internet on a flight, I don't need to surf that bad. What I would worry about is a system that is accessible by both the pilots and passengers and that the new software being used can be hacked and pilots given the wrong information. Also bothersome is now they apparently will have 2 iPads to pay attention to as well as the flight displays. That will be one busy cockpit.
