Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines brought in the new year with very good travel news for passengers: free Wi-Fi on flights.

The news means that instead of paying $50 a month, frequent customers can enjoy internet service at no charge.

Delta Air Lines Flights To Get Free Wi-Fi

The airline made the announcement at the recent Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, where companies unveil the latest tech developments in the works.

For Delta, the Wi-Fi rollout will be a gradual one with planes on the airline’s most popular routes first to receive it. After that, smaller jets and the wide-body aircraft used for international flights will get free internet service in 2024.

You’ll be able to know if your particular plane is enabled for Wi-Fi by an icon on display near the boarding area, the airline said.

How Much Does Delta Charge For Wi-Fi?

If your plane isn’t equipped for free Wi-Fi, Delta charges $7 for a one-hour pass. There are also monthly Wi-Fi plans available for purchase.

As we mentioned, it costs $49.95 for monthly access to Wi-Fi on all domestic flights that Delta has equipped for internet service.

What Airlines Have Free Wi-Fi?

Delta joins JetBlue Airways as the only other major airline to offer complimentary internet service to its customers.

Final Word

Free Wi-Fi is yet another perk that Delta is offering its passengers. The airline announced in January 2022 that travelers that the expiration date for any travel credits you still have has been extended through 2023.
