Morgans,


There are a lot of people in the world with more money than

Actually, if you really have the money, need to fly a lot, but not
enough for a long-range biz jet to make sense, what doesn't make sense
about booking the suite?

But do they have access to the internet from the suites? I find it
very difficult to do work without access to my email, files and other
online resources.


You need to set up your system to sync. That way you have a current
copy on your PC. I can respond to emails for hours on end without
refreshing new ones.
The WSJ article said they had some sort of USB network connection. Not
sure if that is just internal or if internet access is available.

Most of the times I am writing proposals or evaluating other peoples
proposals, so I don't know ahead of time what resources I might need.
I may need to pull an article from a journal, or search for a piece of
information on a government database. Besides, I don't like the idea
of syncing everything that is on my server to a laptop because of the
security risk. On an aircraft that costs hundreds of millions, surely
there must be a way to link to the internet via some satellite link.
If Southwest offered internet access, I would happily take their bench
seats over private suites in a luxury airline that did not offer data
service.
