Recently, while flying, a flight attendant mistakenly spilt coffee on my seat partners laptop......while it was OPEN. Needless to say, it was quite a disaster. It should go without saying: close your notebook's screen when you OR your neighbors are being served food or drink. Liquid of any kind can seep into your notebook and damage the internal circuitry. So next time: mouth open, laptop closed!

Connexion by Boeing provides you in-flight Internet access at a speed comparable to what you experience in a broadband home or office environment. Access what you want when you want it, including your e-mail, the latest news, stock quotes, and online retailers. Or you can make the most of your travel time to learn more about your destination, plan your itinerary, or even make reservations online.
Another trick might be to use a travel mug inflight. I have a smallish one in stainless steel that has a lid. It reduces the splash factor.
