Low-cost domestic airline Mango will be the first South African carrier to offer in-flight internet access with WiFi, according to Fin24.com
The service is to be launched this year, pending approval from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). Mango CEO Nico Bezuidenhout said the service would cost “less than R1 per megabyte”.
“The launch of web connectivity on board our aircraft not only underpins Mango’s business objectives but allows travellers, in particular our business guests, to leverage a priceless commodity – time,” said Bezuidenhout.
