Usage

This extension will create a colored square in your toolbar representing the status of FlyFi on your plane.

• Red means FlyFi is disconnected
• Yellow means FlyFi will disconnect soon
• Green means FlyFi is connected
• Gray means FlyFi is in an unknown state The extension operates by polling the FlyFi server once a minute. If you want to stop this or are not on a JetBlue flight with FlyFi, you can disable (and later enable) the extension on by clicking the square and toggling "Enabled".

Notes

I wrote this because I was on a flight where the WiFi kept going in and out, and then it never came back. Thus disconnected is the only state that currently works reliably.
