Google and Virgin America provide free WiFi on holiday flights
Google and Virgin America will be providing passengers with free Wi-Fi between 1o November 2009 and 15 January 2010. To find out more about this holiday giveaway, go to www.freeholidaywifi.com. I wonder whether the other airlines will follow. I’ve flown on Virgin America but that was before they began providing Wi-Fi in all of their domestic flights. If you are going overseas, I understand that Lufthansa will be resuming their in-flight Wi-Fi service. Lufthansa and SAS used to have Wi-Fi courtesy of Boeing Connexion, but Boeing closed down that business unit a few years ago. Now, it appears, the airlines are gearing up again to provide Wi-Fi to passengers.
