Not alone on the GoGo inconsistency. Flying TransPacific westward to Tokyo last month, GoGo was subpar on American's 787 as well. Was slow over North America and then went out until we were near Tokyo. Flying eastward, service was a bit more consistent but went out while we were over the Bering Strait until we were back over North America

javichuelas on my flight from Seoul to Atlanta the Gogo work for the first hour and was out the rest of the flight. My flight from Detroit to Tokyo the Gogo was fine until somewhere over Alaska and it went out to never return. The time I was able to use it it was pretty fast, compared to the old version. I was able to stream my podcast which is never able to do on the older version. If they make the service more stable throughout the flight I think they maybe on to something.

I doubt American Airlines or United would even try this. Glad to see at least one US carrier is trying to keep up with the times. American needs to throw away ALL creaky-ass 757s. I'm sick of being stuck with them. My dad always made me fly them because of their points program. I don't know if Delta offers a better program because they're also on American Express' Gold card system. Don't know why he won't switch over to them...

Can you tell me if there was much room for your feet when you were fully reclined? I'm a regular Delta One traveler, and my biggest issue is that there's no room for my feet when I am laying down, as I wear a size 16 shoe. I can't lay flat on my back with my feet straight up. I have to be in 1A or 1D on the 767-400 to get any space, and those seats are pretty old at this point. Great video, and thanks for sharing!

TPG sets a pretty high bar with its web site reviews; I recommend them as overall well written, well illustrated, detailed, and sometimes witty / wry / advertently entertaining. So, this, the first TPG video review I've watched, had _none_ of the above strengths! At moments it verges on parody. Perhaps thepointsguy cynically intended it as such; after all, here we are, giving attention to a laughably deficient, but not funny, basically toothache of a video.

American-based Airlines cannot compete with their Asian or Arab counterparts. You don't need to be a 'reviewer' to see that for a business-class (or "suite"-class) seat that these ones are cramped, cheap-looking, and the food appears average at best. If you're paying $4000+ (or using-up your miles) for a ticket, this is not worth it. You only have to look at Singapore Airlines or Emirates Airlines business-class to see what the standard should be.
