Wi-Fi availability marks another stage in the process of expanding the national carrier’s in-flight offering and is a response to the expectations voiced by passengers, who called for continuous Internet access while on the go. The service allows passengers to stay connected with their loved ones, work remotely, and enjoy online entertainment during their flight.
“We are proud to bring Viasat Amara to LOT Polish Airlines as they take this important step in elevating the long‑haul passenger experience. Delivering fast, reliable in‑flight Wi‑Fi on the Dreamliner fleet is a meaningful milestone, and LOT’s commitment to offering high‑quality connectivity reflects a deep understanding of what today’s travelers expect. With Viasat’s global satellite network and Viasat’s Amara connectivity solution, passengers can stay productive, entertained, and connected throughout their journey, from gate-to-gate—whether they’re working, streaming, or keeping in touch with family and friends. We look forward to continuing our partnership as LOT expands connectivity across its fleet,” said Don Buchman, President, Viasat Aviation
LOT provides access to two paid packages: Chat ($7), allowing instant messaging, and Streaming ($29), enabling passengers to browse websites, watch videos, and work online. Complimentary Internet access is available to LOT Business Class passengers and members of the Miles & More program from select airlines, provided that they enjoy specific statuses – regardless of travel class.
