I think dear, precious Mika thinks that WIFI on an airplane is like getting tap water in a diner. They have it anyway, so why NOT share.
Getting WIFI to work reliably, and with enough throughput to satisfy half a plane of travellers streaming Netflix, YouTube, Amazon and the occasional WebEx meeting is NOT an inexpensive undertaking. You cannot just plug in a MIFI box and a Netgear wireless box and be done.
And when the line & pole men do not get the pay increases, she and rest of the left-O-crats will demand that the workers "get their fair share".
Just like that free health care; is everyone gonna work for you, for free, like a slave now?
