Emirates has expanded its free inflight Wi-Fi service with new rates for all flyers.<\/p>\n

Effective immediately, all Emirates Skywards Platinum and Gold members will receive unlimited Wi-Fi during their Emirates flight, regardless of their class of travel.<\/p>\n

This offer also applies to all Emirates Skywards members travelling in First and Business class.<\/p>\n

In addition, Economy class customers and non-Skywards members will recieve 20MB of free data usage within the first two hours of log in, double the current 10MB free being offered.<\/p>\n

Additional data can be purchased in 150MB or 500MB blocks, with tiered discounts for Skywards Silver and Blue members, the airline said.<\/p>\n

The doubling to 20MB of free data will suit customers who are light Wi-Fi users looking to send short messages to their families and friends, or check their social media accounts while flying, it said.<\/p>\n
