FYI: We inquired about switching from one plan to another (there are
two plans -- "Deluxe" for $49/month, and "Regular" for $29/month), and
the XM Weather folks told us that you can switch back and forth easily,
at will -- and at no charge. We're considering downgrading the
service in the winter, when we rarely fly cross country flights.

They also said you can turn the service off completely, without charge.
This may be an option for those who don't fly in the winter.



You can turn it off, but if you go past a certain grace period (60 or 90
days), you will get hit with the $75 activation fee when you want to
turn it back on again.
