Delta started rolling out fast free Wi-Fi on long-haul international routes
Starting this summer, Delta Air Lines customers on select Viasat-equipped long-haul international flights will be able to enjoy a fast, free Wi-Fi connection brought to you by T-Mobile, bringing the airline one step closer to achieving its goal of offering free Wi-Fi throughout its global fleet.
Today, free, streaming-quality connectivity is available on nearly 700 aircraft – more than 90% of Delta’s domestic mainline fleet – and the airline expects the vast majority of customers will have access to the product by the end of the year.
“As we continue to roll out fast, free Wi-Fi and the in-flight experiences it powers, we’re able to serve customers traveling both domestically and internationally in new, in-the-moment ways,” says Ranjan Goswami, S.V.P. – Customer Experience Design.
