Watching movies on an iPad when flying

[Chrysanthemum]

I'm getting a new iPad tomorrow. We leave for vacation on Friday. We have lots of longish flights coming up.

How do I watch movies when I can't access the internet? FWIW we do have Hulu+ and Netflix streaming. Explain it to me like I'm a little kid, please...

Sidenote: does the iPad Firefox app suck like the one for iPhone? I'd like to leave my laptop at home, but all of my bookmarks are in Firefox! Tips??

You either need to download movies directly to your iPad while you have internet, or pay for inflight wifi to watch streaming which I'm not even sure works that great. Download ahead of time if you want to be safe.

Other question blah blah blah.

We download anything we want to watch ahead of time.

Can you do this with Netflix? Or is iTunes the only option?
