Wi-Fi on the plane in Europe at Lufthansa

Wi-Fi airplane Europe LufthansaLufthansa is the first airline in Europe to offer Wi-Fi on the plane during the continental flights, but also those that will take place only over Germany, the company announcing its plans during this day.

Those from Lufthansa they announced that only starting from the summer of 2016, their clients will have the opportunity to use it Wi-Fi on the plane in continental and local flights, so you will have to wait until then to be able to surf the Internet at over 10.000 meters high.

Considering that the airlines in the USA and other countries around the world already offer services of this kind, it was expected that the airlines in Europe would follow their example, so that the Europeans would benefit from Wi-Fi on the plane to surf the internet during flights.

Those from Lufthansa they did not provide details about the prices they intend to charge for the use of the Wi-Fi service on the plane, but considering the prices in the US, I imagine that we are talking about different prices for mobile terminals and computers.

From early summer 2016, Lufthansa will be the first network airline in Europe to offer broadband on board its short and medium-haul flights. This will enable passengers on continental flights and flights within Germany to enjoy the full freedom to communicate and to use the Internet with a wide bandwidth above the clouds. The first aircraft will be fitted with the new technology in early summer 2016.

More precisely, the use of Wi-Fi on the plane from mobile terminals could have prices of at least 5 - 7 euros per flight, while the use of an internet connection on the plane could cost at least 12 - 15 euros per flight, the prices being be bigger or smaller.

Prices can be set per flight or per hour of use, depending on the duration of the flight, so it remains to be seen what Lufthansa will announce, but also what other airlines interested in offering such services will announce.
