Delta Rolls Out Free Wi-Fi on All Routes to Europe and West Africa

Delta’s industry-leading Wi-Fi rollout is about to hit another milestone: As of early April, all customers flying across Delta’s transatlantic network to Europe, Israel and West Africa will have access to fast, free Delta Sync Wi-Fi presented by T-Mobile.  

It’s a major step toward Delta’s goal of bringing free Wi-Fi to its entire global fleet (after having already completed rollout to the entire domestic mainline fleet) – connectivity at an unprecedented scale, unmatched across the industry. Plus, the journey continues as the Wi-Fi rollout expands to routes serving South America, which Delta expects to complete later this spring. 

But even for those not flying overseas, the Wi-Fi rollout is quickly coming closer to home for many customers: this spring, Delta outfitted the first of its fleet of more than 400 regional jets—a CRJ-700—with fast, free Wi-Fi and entered service.  

As part of that connectivity upgrade, Delta will equip its entire Boeing 717 fleet with a first-of-its-kind solution that sets a new standard for connectivity in commercial aviation. The solution enables simultaneous dual-network connectivity to deliver the best possible online experience—which means seamless streaming to personal devices and superior performance across Delta’s network.  

Stay connected from gate to gate with Delta Sync Wi-Fi. Once boarding doors close, SkyMiles Members can instantly access the internet on one or more of their devices – no need to wait until they reach 10,000 feet.

Customers on domestic and exit-U.S. flights can stream the latest from Paramount+ on their devices; access offers from brands they love; find travel inspiration for their journey (as well as real-time updates for their trip); challenge themselves with games and puzzles from New York Times Games; play the retro-style Sky Hopper game for a chance to win a $400 gift card; browse unique gifts and Centennial-branded merch in Delta Sync Wi-Fi's onboard Delta Shop; and so much more. Delta Sync Wi-Fi unlocks a world of connectivity, right at your fingertips. 

Delta expects dual-network connectivity retrofits to begin Q4, with the entire 717 fleet expected to be complete by early 2026.  

Coming in late 2026, select new delivery A350-1000 and A321neo aircraft will also be outfitted with dual-network connectivity solution, further enhancing our next-generation Delta Sync seatback experience. As announced at CES, the next-gen seatback experience will include intelligent 4K HDR QLED displays, Bluetooth® capabilities, advanced personalization capabilities, and more.  

“Thanks to the dedication and expertise of Delta teams, we’re making enormous strides in our efforts to bring fast, free Wi-Fi to every aircraft in our fleet—which in turn will transform our aircraft into personalized platforms where customers can connect and engage in meaningful new ways,” said Ranjan Goswami, S.V.P. – Customer Experience Design.

“With the addition of our pioneering dual-network connectivity solution to 717s and forthcoming A350-1000 and A321neo new deliveries, we’re unlocking new possibilities for what it means to stay connected in the air.”
