Download Before You Board
Download films, series, podcasts, and audiobooks while you still have reliable Wi-Fi at home or at the airport lounge. Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, Spotify, Pocket Casts, and Audible all support offline playback.
Airline Entertainment Systems
Inflight entertainment varies enormously by airline and aircraft type. Long-haul widebodies typically offer hundreds of films and TV series. Emirates, Singapore Airlines, and Qatar Airways are consistently rated highest for library depth and quality.
Inflight Wi-Fi: Is It Worth Paying For?
Quality is still inconsistent. On newer transatlantic routes with Starlink or Viasat, speeds can be usable. On shorter domestic routes, Wi-Fi is often adequate for messaging but too slow for video calls. Many premium credit cards include inflight Wi-Fi credits.
