Free Wi-Fi on board with American Airlines
American Airlines and AT&T, two iconic brands in the U.S. with a long tradition of connections (both in the air and on the ground) announce a revolutionary partnership set to transform the travel experience: starting January 2026, passengers who are members of the AAdvantage® loyalty program will be able to enjoy free Wi-Fi on board more than 2 million flights per year, offered with the support of AT&T.
This is the largest offer of free in-flight connectivity ever offered by an airline in the United States, and will be available on more aircraft than any other national carrier. The service will be active on all aircraft equipped with Viasat and Intelsat high-speed satellite technology , which cover approximately 90% of American Airlines' fleet.
American plans to equip more than 500 regional aircraft with high-speed connectivity by the end of 2025, to deliver a consistent experience across the network.
