Apple MagSafe Airline Adapter
Adapter use

Great adapter! Users should be able to leave with all the parts they stated with, It's not Apples fault they forget part of it in the Power-Port. If it were welded together then I'm sure there would be like reviews griping about how it wasn't good for EmPower ports and they had to buy two. Proper techniques and responsibility go a long way to user satisfaction. If it were bullet proof, with every conceivable reinforcement, it would weigh a ton and cost 3 times the amount. It's great for what it is in the limitations of airlines power supply restrictions (they can't supply every seat with 500 watts of power). It's simple and takes up little room. Good job apple.

Apple MagSafe Airline Adapter
Engineering oversight

I agree with TH. Apple has forgotten to clip the airline to barrel. Thus leaving the barrel connector in the airplane. I am also out 50 bucks. They won't get another. I went and got an igo this time.

Apple MagSafe Airline Adapter
Does what it says, elegantly engineered

Works exactly as advertised and does a good job.
For those wanting an Airline Adapter to eliminate Malaria and then make them pancakes on Sunday mornings, this isn't it. Because cigarette lighter plugs in cars don't provide clean enough power or high enough amperage to run a 17" Macbook Pro. That's the price we pay for having a universal, backwards- and forwards-compatible power standard.49 of 75 people found this useful

Works.

Does exactly as it says. It isn't Apple's fault if you don't check if you pulled the adapter out of the wall.

Apple MagSafe Airline Adapter
Poor engineering and very surprised
Written by TH from Arlington

My wife is new to the Mac. She is a flight attendant and just got a MacBook, and of course a MagSafe for her long travel. I am a very big fan of Apple but this time when she came back and realized that when she pulled the adaptor from the plane's power port that the adaptor stayed in the socket, I looked at the MagSafe for some form of locking mechanism to prevent this obvious user action. To my great disappointment I noticed that if the plane socket offers resistance, one could easily leave the cigarette lighter adaptor in the socket and be out 50$. Yes it stayed on the plane! Now I am asking apple to address this flaw. If, like my wife, you don't expect Apple to make these types of mistakes you just don't look at the tip of your adapter when you get ready to land.
