trinketsofgold · 08/02/2017 20:07

She did a who to what now?

HardToDeal · 08/02/2017 20:07

Some planes have wifi on board now

bunnylove99 · 08/02/2017 20:08

No idea what you mean..

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 08/02/2017 20:08

It depends on the plane she's on. Some have wifi.

I'm not sure why this is AIBU though - U about what?

Bailey101 · 08/02/2017 20:08

No idea what a kik is, but if it needs internet then a lot of long haul flights have wifi these days.

PigletWasPoohsFriend · 08/02/2017 20:08
Confused

If you mean can she use Internet on the plane, the answer is yes you can on some.

19lottie82 · 08/02/2017 20:09

Yeah most modern flights planes have wifi on them now.

(Kik is an instant messaging service like what's app)

Redglitter · 08/02/2017 20:09

Yes it's possible. Not sure what's urgent or unreasonable though

Loads of planes now have wi-fi so it's totally possible. DH deliberately flies certain airlines because wi-fi is his king.

melj1213 · 08/02/2017 20:10

Of course it's possible.

I'm assuming Kik is similair to WhatsApp or the like so flights with WiFi mean you can still send them.

PaddlingFuriously · 08/02/2017 20:10

Why is this urgent?

CookieLady · 08/02/2017 20:11

Eh? Why are you worried? Of course many planes have wifi these days (as many PP have said) so I don't know why your update still sounded so confused.

Hmm
Kirstyinnorway · 08/02/2017 20:13

X-post, although no idea why you seem so grateful - were you worried the plane had gone down?!

WorraLiberty · 08/02/2017 20:13

I hope she doesn't run out of punctuation in mid-air...

BeyondUnderthinking · 08/02/2017 20:15

Even if she doesn't have onboard wifi, most planes don't fall out of the sky if someone accidentally leaves their phone on Grin

BillyDaveysDaughter · 08/02/2017 20:15

Well, that was random.

Bailey101 · 08/02/2017 20:16

Why was it so urgent?

picklemepopcorn · 08/02/2017 20:17

Did you worry she'd missed her plane?

Most flights now offer wifi access at a cost. Your friend could easly have sent a kik
