Southwest is hell-bent on launching some international service in the coming years, and satellite-based Wi-Fi will take it a long way toward that goal.
Southwest Airlines says 400 of its aircraft now have satellite-based Wi-Fi installed, along with live TV entertainment, all from provider Row 44.
The development should put Southwest in good shape as it moves progressively toward adding more over-water flight
