After Emirates recently announced that it will offer Complimentary Wi-Fi to all passengers, now, Singapore Airlines has announced the same.
Once not-so-common feature on airlines, Wi-Fi has been increasing gaining importance on flights. Airlines are now becoming generous in offering Wi-Fi, with some full-service airlines like Emirates and Singapore Airlines now offering complimentary Wi-Fi to all passengers irrespective of their cabin class.
Effective 1st July 2023, all Singapore Airlines passengers will have access to Complimentary unlimited Wi-Fi on all flights except on those operated by one of the seven Boeing B737-800NG aircraft. Passengers travelling in First Class and Business Class already have access to Complimentary Wi-Fi, so this means that Premium Economy and Economy Class passengers will now get the same benefit.
Since February 2023, KrisFlyer members travelling in Premium Economy Class and Economy Class have enjoyed complimentary three- and two-hour Wi-Fi surf plans respectively.
In today’s increasingly hyper-connected world, high-speed in-flight Wi-Fi connectivity is one of the most important requirements for our customers. Giving them access to free unlimited Wi-Fi is yet another milestone in SIA’s continuous effort to offer an exceptional end-to-end travel experience. With this enhanced offering, our customers will be empowered to stay connected, entertained, and productive, even at 36,000 feet in the sky.
said Yeoh Phee Teik, Senior Vice President Customer Experience, Singapore Airlines.
