Virgin America – Plane 2.0
A year ago, when we first started Sociosophy, never would I have thought I’d be writing about a plane. My time in the air, before Virgin America came into view, was spent in American Airlines and Southwest Airlines for the most part. The most entertainment you’d get out of the flight would be playing the “decipher the PA” game and “what’s that smell?”.
Virgin America sets itself apart through the wonders of knowing today’s generation. Amazing what a little insight into “now” can do for a company. Their planes pretty much social networks with wings. Once in your seat you have access to shows, chat, games (like DOOM, f**k yea!), a power outlet and now wi-fi. Yes, Wi-Fi, on a mother f**kin’ plane.
Check out Virgin America’s Virgin Americans and Virgin America’s Community.
When it comes to “getting it”, Virgin America’s doing a pretty damn good job at defining what Plane 2.0 is. Go fly somewhere. It’s cheap enough to do it on a whim at least once.

Absolutely <3 x 1,000 … especially with classic first person shooter (Doom) at the helm, last time I flew.
