gogo to watch movies

[winowino]

Anyone having any luck using gogo to watch movies on smartphones? We're preparing for a long flight to Alaska, thinking of buying a one-day gogo pass to pass the time. Any advice?

I have read about issues with people not being able to stream video due to them having certain blocks in place. Even if they don't block it I would imagine the connection speed is limited and the more people on it will make it even slower. I would have a plan B in place just in case you run into one of many issues with trying to stream video.

The movies on the aircraft via Gogo are actually streamed from on the aircraft - a day pass won't get you them. Getting something like Netflix to work from Gogo is a no-no and a no go. They block it very effectively.

 

Most carriers price movies a la carte. Some have a mix of free and paid options. Make sure to install the Gogo media player before you leave the ground
