The WiFi review we can’t give you

US Airways does use Airbus A321 jets on some of its St. Thomas flights and when we saw that we were getting on one, we couldn’t wait to see if it was one of the A321′s US Airways had outfitted with in-flight WiFi.

We didn’t even need to get on the plane to find out.  A big WiFi badge flanked the door at the top of the steps.

But nevermind.  The service doesn’t work over water and since that is almost the entire flight to anywhere US Airways flies from St. Thomas, they don’t even offer it.  There’s $5 you won’t be able to blow.

    They offered it on one of the flights I took from Charlotte to STT last month, but of course it only worked for the first hour of the flight. Delta has it, too, on the STT route from ATL — same deal. It works OK.
