AirAsia starts Free User trial of in-flight WiFi service

Low cost airline, AirAsia has started public trial of its in-flight WiFi service. It is available now until October and it is limited to the first 60 passengers on board. You’ll know if your flight has WiFi connectivity when the crew makes an announcement during the flight.

To sign in, you’ll need to request for access from its connectivity portal and they will limit one connection per device during the flight. Before you get excited with what you can do at over 35,000 feet, the free trial WiFi service is capped at 1MB. It appears that usage would be restricted to popular instant messaging apps such as LINE, WhatsApp and WeChat.

We reckon they would offer more paid options once the WiFi service is commercially available. Expect to pay a premium if you wish to do more vigorous internet surfing during the flight. Apart from AirAsia, Malindo too has indicated that they would be offering WiFi on-board but there’s no mention of its roll out until now.
