I'm currently on a Southwest flight from San Jose back to Austin, and just did something unexpected - I played an online game from 30,000 feet.
Those of you who like World of Tanks may know the mobile version, WoT Blitz....its 14 players (7v7), on large constructed maps with realtime movement and battles.
Now, it wasn't without a few lags but I was actually able to play 6 or 8 rounds reasonably well, which really surprised me. This flight is only 1/3 full and so few are probably competing for bandwidth, but hey I can't complain. Maybe there is hope for airborne wifi eventually.
