I am going on a plane trip and I want to watch a movie on my tablet.?
I went to amazon and rented a couple of movies, and then I thought that I would not be able to get on the internet on the plane to get access to these movies. Does anyone know if the plane will have wifi or access to the internet or do I need to go somewhere and download a movie. If so, what is a good place to download new movies. Thank you

Definitely download the movie. Even if your plane has wifi and you pay the money, the bandwidth is AWFUL. It is usually just fast enough to download an email message and update Facebook. I'm not sure which tablet you have, but just make sure your movie is stored on the hard disk.

As mentioned, check with the airline or online a day or 2 before the flight. It will tell you if the aircraft is equipped with WIFI. Also, not all airlines have WIFI onboard their planes...and not ALL planes are quipped with it either so I recommend that you download the movies you want to watch at home.
As for where you can download new movies, it depends what tablet you have.
By the way, all airlines internet cost money, so I definitely recommend that you download your movies prior to the flight.

All you have to do is go to the airline website and look up your reservation. Somewhere on the itinerary, it should tell you whether or not the aircraft is equipped with wireless.
Oh, just in case you didn't know this...the wireless isn't free. You will likely pay about ten bucks for access during the duration of the flight.
As for downloading movies, well, you're on your own on that one.
