Promotional prices for in-flight wifi run from US$10 for 10 megabytes of data to US$25 for 30 megabytes. SIA said it would also offer discounted roaming rates for in-flight text messaging and GPRS data services.
“There will be much more investment in the months and years ahead to keep our customers both connected and entertained,” said SIA’s senior vice president for product and services Tan Pee Teck. “As our customers’ preferences toward entertainment and connectivity options change over time, so must we.”
The roll out of the wireless service follows a soft launch earlier this year.
