Answer:

pay the 11 AM ticket

Explanation:

Note that the flight last for 12 hours, and assuming the freelance developer can still work (have access to the internet) on the airplane throughout the flight, he stand to earn $960 ($80*12), which will still cover the cost of the flight with a profit of $60 ($960-900).

However, if he decides to pay the $11 flight ticket and there is no Internet on boards; there by losing a day of work, he stand to have lost working time which would earn with $900.

Therefore, the best choice is to pay the 11 AM ticket.
