I forgot to write about this on my last trip in January. On the flight to SJ there was no music or movies. Continental now has a Pay Per View setup on the planes. You swipe your card for whatever music tv show or movie that you might want to see?
On the flight back passengers were giddy at thought of watching or listening to music and movies for about six bucks. Some offered up their cards begore we could taxi and liftoff from the runway! After we were in the air for about 30 minutes it seemed. All those that had paid were glued to their screens waiting in anticipation of what was to come? Nothing came! WTF? Soon after the pilot came on and informed all passengers that the reception of Pay Per View was not available until within 200 miles of the US coast. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Which means you can watch or listen to pay per view the first 200 miles of your flight or the last 200 miles of your flight?
Thats just phucking great! I think I will purchase another portable dvd player for my flights!
Thanks Continental/United
