Boston airport authorities cannot stop Continental Airlines from offering wireless Internet service in its frequent flier lounge under a proposed Federal Communications Commission ruling. FCC Chairman Kevin Martin has proposed backing Continental's request to keep its free service running. The proposed ruling favoring Continental has been sent to the four other FCC commissioners for a vote. If Continental wins, the FCC ruling could serve as a precedent for other airlines and Internet service providers to offer airport Internet access, often sought by business travelers.
