AirAsia pilots on-board Wi-Fi for year-end roll-out


AirAsia this week commenced on-board testing for its Wi-Fi products that will include instant messaging, emails and content streaming.

Tony Fernandes, CEO of AirAsia Group, said: “The Wi-Fi equipment that was introduced to us much earlier was just too expensive and we have decided to develop our own. It has taken us five years to come to this stage, but in true AirAsia style, we have to get it right and provide our guests with the best value at the most affordable rates.”

About 120 volunteers boarded a test flight for the first user acceptance test earlier this week, using instant messaging systems Line, WhatsApp and WeChat during the exercise.

The LCC will offer 60 guests on each flight the chance to take part in the Free User Test, with details to be shared on AirAsia’s website and social media channels.
