8h lease might honestly be better, in the case where you have medium haul international flights with wifi, or a shorter flight with delays causing people to be onboard for longer…
If you are delayed you don’t want to be inundated with “the wiffy isn’t working” while dealing with 100 other complaints, whereas when things are smooth the “reset internet” will do just fine.
Dhcp clients renew their leases at 50% of the lease time, so there’s really no point in having a lease time longer than half an hour.
I only go up to 12 hours at home so that leases survive devices being powered down overnight, and I have an absurd number of addresses available. Even then though, clients tend to request their previous addresses first when getting a new lease, so things can expire with no issue
