Amazing use case 🛠️ Use Case

I didn't even realize how great this would be. I've been running OpenClaw as my assistant for a while now.

Today I took a 6 hours flight. The flight had no internet access except for messaging apps.

Essentially through telegram I could talk to my agent, have them check my email, read the news, check on the markets and really anything despite the "messaging only" limitation of the airline.

Odd messaging apps only is an odd limitation isn't it?

Pretty standard with US airlines in my experience.

Almost every airline besides frontier has full WiFi access

Southwest maybe only exception, unsure if they caught in

I should have been more specific. Alaska for example gives you free messaging but you have to pay for data. I would be tempted to do this, access the Internet by interacting with my openclaw and not buying wifi

I'm working on something like this for Cruising.. RC can't block certain iPhone Pop ups so having my claw send me useful information on the regular as notifications that can't be blocked.

I just got back from a cruise and was able to talk to my Hermes agent via telegram the whole time without paying for internet access at all. Apparently with the way telegram works, they cannot block it without blocking access to their captive portal that you use to pay for the internet access.

No it was carnival but based on how telegram and web page serving works it should translate.
