OMG Qantas To Offer Infight Internet, Power

July 25, 2007

Who ever thought that Qantas might become a world-leading airline? OK, so I’m typing this from the Qantas Domestic Terminal at Perth Airport on free WiFi, but as Engadget reports, starting next year Qantas is going to offer Wifi + Power on A380’s and refitted 747s. Touchwood it’s the entire 747 fleet given about half of Qantas’ flights to the Eastern States out of Perth are on 747’s. Still got a book for today though, but I cant wait for next year 🙂

An important question though: I wonder how much Qantas will charge for data? This is Qantas after all, I just cant see it being cheap, but hey, if it’s $50 or $100 on a long flight it would be well worth it.

  1. Yeah I’m thinking of moving to Australia just because of this…

    Also because I once took a Qantas plane that looked like the Austin Powers tie-dye jet.

  2. Thats a first: Qantas inflight entertainment is usually pretty pathetic – well better than AirNZ but not a patch on the Asian airlines
