Virgin Australia's free wireless in-flight entertainment

Virgin Australia is rolling out free Wireless In-flight Entertainment systems on selected aircraft.

No more crook necks, dodgy earphones, and straining to see the little screen that seems like it's ten seats away. Or missing the show when someone stands up and blocks the screen. And kids can actually watch something now too.

Sounds good to me!

Woman insulted by airlines entertainment unit

This may be what happens when the IT department are frustrated, or bored... A passenger on an Air India flight was shocked after being called an "idiot" by the in-flight entertainment unit.

The woman said she tried to watch a movie but the entertainment unit wouldn't work properly. While adjusting the switches and buttons, a rather rude message popped up on the screen.

It read: "The selection is not currently available. Please try again." The message continued toward the bottoms of the screen: "Lie low... Sit down you idiot!".

The airline has commented that it may have been a glitch in the system, with the subtitles of the movie the woman had been watching coming up on the screen.

A rather unfortunate matter of timing. Perhaps.
