Delta Airlines has completed the roll-out of Wifi on its international fleet, enabling all customers flying on its nonstop services from Africa to Atlanta and New York-JFK to stay connected at 30,000 feet.<\/p>\n
The final Boeing 777 \u2013 one of a number serving South Africa \u2013 has now been equipped and is back in service.\u00a0 It marks a new milestone for the airline with flights from Accra, Dakar, Lagos and Johannesburg\u2013 offering on-demand Wi-Fi throughout the aircraft.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe know that Wifi is an important part of the travel experience, especially for those flying for business,\u201d said Jimmy Eichelgruen, Delta\u2019s Sales Director for Africa, the Middle East and India. \u201cWith Wifi available in every cabin, all our customers can stay in touch with events on the ground throughout their journey. We hope our customers will enjoy this enhanced experience the next time they fly Delta.\u201d<\/p>\n
Delta\u2019s Wi-Fi is powered by high-speed, Ku-Band satellite technology and provided by Gogo. Laptop passes are available to buy from just US$6.95 for one hour\u2019s usage or a global day pass can be purchased in advance of a flight for US$28. Customers will also enjoy free access to the airline\u2019s on-demand entertainment system Delta Studio, which includes in-flight streaming to view movies and TV shows on mobile devices.<\/p>\n
Delta began installing Wifi on U.S. domestic mainline aircraft in 2008.\u00a0 With international satellite-based Wi-Fi now installed on Delta\u2019s wide-body fleet comprising Boeing 767s, 747s, 777s Airbus A330 and transoceanic Boeing 757s, the airline operates the world\u2019s largest WiFi quipped fleet, giving customers more options to stay connected in-flight.<\/p>\n
