True, true, Dean (on many planes not having power in coach), but really that was the whole point of my sharing seatguru. You can literally know for sure if your flight will have power at your seats.
More than that, I should have pointed out that they also have a comparison guide, where you can tell at a glance which airlines (and specific planes) DO have power and other desired amenities in coach: http://www.seatguru.com/charts/domestic_economy.php They also offer a Laptop Power Guide, http://www.seatguru.com/articles/in-seat_laptop_power.php, with info to help you understand the issues and opportunities regarding getting laptop power on a plane /charlie -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dean H.

My experience on domestic airlines is they very rarely have power in coach (cattle class). The exception is when you get a flight that is on a plane headed internationally, such as the Delta 777s. Also, the bathrooms quite often have power, but I refuse to hang out in the shitter to get some juice. Quite unfortunate, though it means when the battery dies I get some time to read. Currently I'm in the middle of "The World is Flat" (Tom Friedman) and "Software Security" (Gary McGraw). A few more flights like the one I had out of Boston and I'll finish both of them! ;-) -dhs Dean H.
