We've already solved it. There's a service on some airline that I forget that lets you even stream videos (Netflix, Youtube, etc) from the plane without issue. It was absolutely amazing.

Gogo, the one that absolutely sucks, locked many airlines into a 10 year contract so they're screwed until that ends. That's the only thing stopping the fast service(s) from rolling out.

Guessing you used a Ka band system. It's 70mbps in ideal conditions, but probably more often 30-50mbps in real life. Works great if not too many of the passengers are streaming.

I've had a video call on a budget airline before.

Last time I flew back from the EU, I enjoyed the Panasonic system, until we entered US airspace. Frankly, I did not miss a beat. Experience was on par with many terrestrial wifi deals.

Then boom! Back to NoGo, limited craptastic, swore I would never pay for it, service.
