Virgin Australia Testing Wi-Fi…But Not For Internet Access?


Though Qantas has toyed with in-flight Wi-Fi in the past, both it and top domestic competitor, Virgin, have been coy on future plans…until now. Qantas has told Australian Business Traveller that it’s on the cards, and the same site reports that Virgin is “evaluating a number of entertainment options, including Wi-Fi.”

However, ZDNet says it’s confirmed that new Wi-Fi service Virgin is currently testing is actually only for in-flight movie and music streaming. Bummer. Surely it’s only a matter of time?
