Alaska Airlines Considers Making Wi-Fi Free – Working out how best to make use of the new technology

23 Nov 2007

When Alaska Airlines announced that it was going to begin testing out in-flight Wi-Fi, the airline said that it was unsure about what it would charge customers for the service. Although the airline is still not certain, they seem to be leaning in favor of offering the service for free.

The airline isn t looking at the satellite-based Internet service so much as a source of additional direct revenue for the airline, but rather as a way to differentiate the airline s service from that of its rivals.

They say that wireless broadband is something that their customers have been asking for and that delivering it to them is a natural step in their development. They plan to have testing done this spring and the entire fleet of airplanes equipped with wireless broadband by the time you start your 2009 holiday traveling.The other airlines (like American Airlines) which are competing to bring broadband to the skies will have to consider their pricing options as well.
