FORT WORTH, Texas — American Airlines will offer free Wi-Fi to its loyalty program members starting next January, the Fort Worth-based airline announced Tuesday.
The complimentary service will be available for American’s AAdvantage members through a partnership with Dallas-based AT&T. The loyalty program is free to join.
The Wi-Fi will be available on all aircraft that are equipped with Viasat and Intelsat high-speed satellite connectivity, which accounts for about 90% of American’s fleet, the airline said. Around two million flights per year will have the free Wi-Fi option.
“Our customers greatly value staying connected while in the air, whether communicating with friends, getting work done, checking in on social media or streaming their favorite subscription services,” Heather Garboden, Chief Customer Officer, American Airlines, said in a press release. “We’ve been working diligently to outfit our aircraft with best-in-class high-speed Wi-Fi and, together with AT&T, are proud to offer those services at no cost to our most loyal customers.”
Garboden called the AT&T sponsorship “a natural partnership in every aspect: two iconic Texas-based brands, known for innovation and connection.”
