Wi-Fi Networking News' Glenn Fleishman today picks up on an article in the Dallas Morning News which mentions that Southwest Airlines is considering offering in-flight Wi-Fi.

"Given that there's only a single real option for in-flight Internet over the US, AirCell, this is another interesting sign about the competition for business travelers that could result from having continuous broadband service," Fleishman writes.

According to Bloomberg's Mary Schlangenstein, southwest CEO Gary Kelly said, "We are very seriously exploring that. We'd be acutely interested in the cost of doing that. It would be a very exciting development if we could make that work."
