Air France will progressively roll out its ultra-high-speed on-board WiFi service in partnership with Starlink from next year.
The new service, free of charge in all travel cabins, will be accessible to customers logging into their Flying Blue account (La Première customers will continue to connect directly).
Those who do not yet have a Flying Blue account, the Air France-KLM Group's loyalty programme, can create one free of charge.
Over time, the WiFi service will be made available on all the airline's aircraft, replacing the current offer.
During the flight, customers will be able to stay in touch with friends and family, follow world news live, play video games online, and stream TV, films, and series.
The service will be accessible from smartphones, digital tablets, and laptops, and each customer will be able to connect several devices simultaneously.
The airline will gradually equip all its aircraft with this cutting-edge technology, including its regional fleet.
During the transitional period, the airline will continue to offer a connectivity service on aircraft that are not yet equipped, including a free ‘Message Pass’ for Flying Blue members and a paid offer that covers other needs.
