American Airlines to Offer Apple Music Access Through Free Inflight Wi-Fi

American Airlines has just become the world’s first airline to provide exclusive access to Apple Music through complimentary inflight Wi-Fi. Starting February 1, Apple Music subscribers can access their music on any domestic American Airlines flight equipped with Viasat satellite Wi-Fi without having to pay for Wi-Fi connectivity.

Subscribers will also be able to enjoy unique city-themed playlists for their journey on American Airlines flights. To access Apple Music during flight, customers on Viasat-equipped aircraft can connect to Wi-Fi at no cost and log in with their Apple Music subscription.



Users who aren’t already subscribed to Apple Music can sign up for the service onboard American Airlines flights and receive free Apple Music access for three months.

“For most travelers, having music to listen to on the plane is just as important as anything they pack in their suitcases,” said Oliver Schusser, vice president of Apple Music. “With the addition of Apple Music on American flights, we are excited that customers can now enjoy their music in even more places. Subscribers can stream all their favorite songs and artists in the air, and continue to listen to their personal library offline, giving them everything they need to truly sit back, relax and enjoy their flight.”
