LAX - KOA - Wifi Availability
Flying on the LAX-KOA flight in a few weeks and am wondering what the Wifi situation is. Does the flight have it, and does it work while it's en-route over the ocean or just near the coastlines? DL's site doesn't seem to answer it properly nor could I find any postings on here which stated how the wifi was. Any comments are appreciated!
