Delta Completes Installation of Wi-Fi on Long-Haul Fleet

A major American airline, Delta has completed installation of Wi-Fi, which is powered by Gogo’s high-speed Ku-Band satellite technology, on its entire long-haul international fleet, enabling business travellers to stay connected at 30,000 feet when flying between the United States and other parts of the world, including Asia, Australia, and Europe.

International Wi-Fi installation included Delta’s Boeing 747, Boeing 777, Boeing 767, international Boeing 757-200 and Airbus A330 fleets.

Delta now operates one of the world’s largest Wi-Fi equipped fleets, with more than 1,100 aircraft operating more than 3,500 connected flights every day, including nearly 700 domestic mainline aircraft, more than 180 international wide-body aircraft and nearly all Delta Connection two-class regional jets.

“We’ve invested billions of dollars in making our customers feel more at home in the sky through comfort, connectivity and entertainment,” says Joe Kiely, Delta’s managing director – product and customer experience. “Completion of international Wi-Fi installation means our customers are more connected than ever when flying to the more than 50 countries we serve around the world.” www.delta.com
