So sorry dfwskier....I reread my post and realized I wasn't very clear! I was proposing that for the first time, they actually issue WIFI coupons instead of Drink Coupons to Rapid Rewards members....and you're absolutely right, it would have to be a low-code effort these days, but I was thinking something along the lines of going down the manifest and picking 10 RR members at random to give the coupons to on every flight (heck, I guess that could be the whole flight in some cases!), announcing them after reaching 10,000 feet, and explaining to the rest of the plane that if you join RR you too could receive one of these on a future WN flight. I don't drink anymore so I have wanted this alternative for a while. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts! Cheers, D

Yep gsking that's what I'm thinking exactly...as A-List Preferred, you login with your credentials to bypass the payment of wifi but there's always a "promo code" box there too just waiting for use...(yet I've never known anyone to get a "promo code"....has anyone on this forum??) that's is how they'd do it. And they could be the first airline in America to give free WIFI to it's loyalists...equals more loyalists....equals more revenue...c'mon WN let's do it!!! 🙂

OK folks...so it's been brought up a million times, but I searched the forum before I decided to post this and it hasn't been posted in 3 years. So way before the pandemic and, well, anything else in recent memory. There's none or limited booze on planes currently. Maybe for a while. There's talk of limiting capacity on planes (true or not? - critical for this argument). Perfect time to pilot test WIFI Coupons vs Drink Coupons for loyal RR members. Limited people means less latency in the pipe. No/less booze means the current ones are useless anyway. JUST FINALLY TRY IT! Maybe for pilot program distribution - try handing them out on the plane (but only so many) like they used to do for LUV vouchers every once in a while.
