@Crunch:
Get some apare batteries on ebay!
Many airlines also have outlets, altough they make require an empower adapter.

@eli k.:
You get miles for the segments flown.

@josh:
You need to purchase in advance to get cheaper prices, although at times they will discount the tickets the day before or of the flight.

@ShmuliT:
Good tip!

Dan, Would you be able to give an overview of Jetblue’s new trueblue program? They are very vague about it. How does it compare with the old one? Is it worth it to get the credit card? (add it to the raffle..) Thank you.

A big yasherkoach for your free wifi codes (in earlier posts). Am on a AA flight now from LAX to JFK trying out the free wifi for my first time.

These 2 codes worked:
1939admiral70aa
AATRYGOGO

But SURFGOGOFREE has expired!

A tip to all you flyers: Save the free wifi codes in a document on your comp now, so you have them when you need to connect.

@MOSHE: Hidden city ticketing means that you book a ticket from point A to point C with a stopover in B but you just get of at B and do not continue. Often the final destination is not a major airport, so prices are cheaper than a flight ending at point B which is a major airport.

How do you keep your computer charged for the whole flight (and during the wait before the flight)?

I wish these airlines has electric outlets!
