American Airlines launches FREE high-speed Wi-Fi

FORT WORTH, Texas — American Airlines is now offering free, high-speed Wi-Fi and on more aircraft than any other carrier. AAdvantage® members can enjoy free high-speed, satellite-based Wi-Fi¹ across more than 2 million American Airlines flights a year, sponsored by AT&T.

“As American celebrates 100 years of delivering industry firsts, including the first loyalty program and first airport lounge, we’re setting the standard for connectivity in the skies,” said Heather Garboden, American’s Chief Customer Officer. “Free high-speed Wi-Fi isn’t just a perk — it’s essential for today’s travelers. That’s why we’re proud to begin rolling out this new offering, sponsored by AT&T, across the majority of our fleet. Once roll out is completed, every AAdvantage® member can stay connected, stream and share almost anywhere their journey takes them for free.”

The rollout will happen in phases. Starting in January, free high-speed Wi-Fi will begin rolling out across 100% of the Fort Worth based carrier’s narrowbody and dual-class regional fleets, and by early spring, it will be available on nearly every American Airlines flight.

Accessing free Wi-Fi is easy through the upgraded aainflight.com portal. Customers can simply log in using their AAdvantage® number and password, then select “Free Wi-Fi” to start browsing.
