Air New Zealand’s complimentary inflight Wi-Fi summer offer to customers has been such a hit the airline is extending
it.
Wi-Fi is now available on 12 international aircraft, including six Boeing 777-200s and four Boeing 777-300s which
predominantly fly the airline’s trans-Tasman, US and London routes and two A321neo aircraft which operate Tasman and
Pacific Island services.
Air New Zealand General Manager Customer Experience Anita Hawthorne says more than 80,000 people have connected to
complimentary Wi-Fi on international flights since 1 December, which is the equivalent to the population of Palmerston
North.
“We’re so pleased with the uptake of our summer Wi-Fi offer and the feedback we’ve received from customers during this
period that we’ve decided to extend it until the end of March.”
Standard Wi-Fi on Air New Zealand services is charged at $30 NZD for a full flight to Australia and the Pacific Islands
and $40 for the duration of a flight to North America, Europe and Asia destinations. There is also a 1-hour pass
available for $9 on North America, Europe and Asia services.
