im going to egypt in july and the flight is so long. i cant sleep in an airplane and ive heard that they have wifi you can buy on the airplane. is this true? and how much is it? Nobody has internet right now, although that will change soon, many airlines will introduce wi-fi sometime this year. There was a internet service called Connexion by Boeing that some airlines offered that was discontinued in 2006, the price was almost $30 per flight. Some airlines do offer an e-mail and sms service, Emirates being one of them, but as far as full internet service, no airline presently has it.
