First Class Flyers Of Singapore Airlines Can Now Enjoy Free In-Flight Wi-Fi Service

If you are traveling with Singapore Airlines in First Class and First Suites, then you are eligible to enjoy free in-flight Wi-Fi service now. How exciting is the fact that while being 30,000 feet in the air, one can surf, tweet, or send a text message on his own mobile phone, tablet, or laptop, for a free of charge ! Putting the provision into effect from August 1, 2019, for its highest cabin of service, the Singaporean airline has increased data caps for other premium passengers also. Plus, the Business Class passengers and select upper-tier elite frequent flyers will receive free Wi-Fi with a higher data cap.

The  aviation department of Singapore is doing all this in partnership with SITAONAIR and Panasonic.

Before this some selected premium passengers have been availed with the service for a number of years now, while this free Wi-Fi was restricted with data caps, even in First Class and First Suites.

Presently, the free in-flight Wi-Fi service is available in the following cabins as follows:

* For Suites: Free unlimited Wi-Fi (up from 100MB)
* For First Class: Free unlimited Wi-Fi (up from 100MB)
* For Business Class: Free Wi-Fi up to 100MB (up from 30MB)
* For PPS Club Flyers: Free Wi-Fi up to 100MB (up from 30MB)

Rest of the passengers will have to pay for the service while onboard.

To be connected to the free service, passengers will need to activate their session through the in-flight Wi-Fi portal through the “complimentary access” page. However with a fluctuating Wi-Fi speed on Singapore Airlines, to enjoy a smooth operation of the facility it is advisable that you should :

* Turn on low power mode and disable background app refresh.

*  Deactivate software/app updates and cloud backups.

* Deactivate media auto-download on chat apps and close inactive apps.

* Keep WiFi session paused, if device is left idle.

* Keep off from bandwidth intensive activities such as streaming and transferring oversized files.

* Activate ‘Auto-Join’ in your WiFi settings to remain connected to the network.

Nonetheless, with this interesting addition of free inflight Wi-Fi, the air passengers of Singapore can now kill time in the sky sending emails and checking Twitter, without being worried about restrictive data caps.
