天空中的 WiFi:飞机作为热点

Listen to article

据《华尔街日报》(Wall Street Journal)报道,航空公司正计划在接下来 12 个月内为飞机客舱配备 Wi-Fi 热点。

经过多年的讨论和延误,美国航空公司将在12个月内开始提供机上互联网连接、即时消息和无线电子邮件服务,将机舱转变为WiFi“热点”。预计各大航空运营商将于夏末前后发布相关公告,服务最早将于明年年初启动。

无论人们是否接受,尽管联邦通信委员会近期表示将继续维持禁令,但美国飞机客舱内使用手机通话仍有一线希望。

尽管飞行中仍禁止使用手机(在半球上空 1 公里处谁还能打电话呢?),但这仍是一个令人欣喜的发展。不过,机上 Wi-Fi 很酷,尽管每次连接费用约为 10 美元。这让我想起去年飞往巴基斯坦伊斯兰堡的旅程(计划今年五月再次前往),途中经停 泰国曼谷巴基斯坦拉合尔,总旅行时间约 15 小时。如果在飞行中能拿出笔记本电脑上网并写博客,那将非常棒。

this is inevitable. It’s the business people who usually fly around the world and these people are most often than not needs to be connected to their work and the people they work with.

A 13 hour to 18 hours flight is a hassle especially if you cannot be contacted. Internet is another way for communication if cellphones are banned.
