T‑Mobile, Delta Air Lines launch free in-flight Wi‑Fi
Over 700 Delta aircraft will have free Wi-Fi by the end of the year
Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian discusses solutions to solving the pilot shortage and reveals if the airline will ever deploy drone passenger carriers on 'The Claman Countdown.'
T‑Mobile and Delta Air Lines officially launched free inflight Wi-Fi for SkyMiles members.
Regardless of their wireless provider, travelers will have access to fast, free Wi-Fi all flight long.
That started to roll out on most domestic mainline Delta flights on Feb. 1. The airline said it was available on more than 500 Delta aircraft at launch.
More than 700 aircraft are expected to offer free Wi-Fi by the end of the year.

Expansion to international and regional routes is anticipated by the end of next year.
Free Wi-Fi is available on smartphones, tablets and laptops. In order to connect, members need to log in to their Delta SkyMiles account – or sign up for free – while on the ground or on the plane.
