Updated: Jaunted's Airport WiFi Map

November 12, 2008 at 1:00 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

It's been quite some time since we last added a location to our Airport WiFi Map, and now that travel-to-see-the-family season is upon us, it's time for an update. And thanks to some tips about free wireless at airports abroad, we're officially taking our map global. Know about some WiFi we've yet to list, either in the US or elsewhere? Let us know.

Oh, and since you can't surf for hours without a power supply, Lifehacker pointed us to an incredibly useful wiki about where to find outlets in airports worldwide. With power and WiFi at the ready, getting bumped this Thanksgiving might actually be bearable.

Airport WiFi: More Airports, Worldwide

August 21, 2008 at 4:50 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

We still haven't managed to catch up with all the airport WiFi emails we've gotten over the past few weeks, but we're trying! Keep the tips coming, and we'll keep updating our mashup.

This week, we've got a few smaller airports but we've also added Hong Kong International, which has free access throughout. And if you're passing through Vietnam, you'll be able to send an email from SGN before hopping an AirAsia flight.

If we managed to miss your favorite airport hotspot, do fill us in. The more specific you can be the better: Where did you log on, and what's the power outlet scene?

Airport WiFi: Even More Airports

July 31, 2008 at 4:32 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

Our well-traveled tipsters have been sending us notes the past few weeks with reports of free WiFi from Sacramento to Jacksonville.

We're always happy to add airports with free wireless to our Airport WiFi Map, which makes it easy to determine if your destination is still in the Stone Age or not.

If you've got an airport we still haven't heard about, let us know. And if you have any cool tips about getting online--lots of power plugs in T3, cool desks across from the Delta gates, whatever--be sure to include those!

Airport WiFi: Our Map, Going International

April 7, 2008 at 1:46 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

Contribute your airport wireless report by leaving it in the comments, uploading your airport photo to Jaunted Flickr Photo Pool, or via email, and we'll add it to our U.S. Airport Wireless map.

After adding tons of US airports to our WiFi Map, we've decided to take it international. And thanks to some of our ever-mobile tipsters, we can fill you in on a couple spots right away.

Naha Airport in Okinawa has free internet at all the ANA gates, and Kuala Lumpur International has WiFi throughout, including in its Low Cost Carrier Terminal. In Europe, a tipster reports that there's no trouble getting online at Shannon International.

This doesn't mean we're giving up on domestic airports, btw. Lately we've heard that Gerald R. Ford International in Grand Rapids has WiFi as does Bradley International outside Hartford, Connecticut.

Airport WiFi: Rejoice, Delta Flyers

February 27, 2008 at 3:16 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

Contribute your airport wireless report by leaving it in comments, uploading your airport photo to Jaunted Flickr Photo Pool, or via email, and we will add it to our U.S. Airport Wireless map.

You may not think of Cincinnati as a major airport city, but the Delta hub just south of town means more than a few passengers have layovers at CVG. Luckily, the airport just announced it'd be offering free wireless to flyers through a partnership with a couple local companies.

True, it's ad-supported, but we're not complaining. To get online, you'll need to be in Terminal 2 or 3 or in Concourse C. (No luck for you suckers in Concourses A and B.)

Elsewhere, Jaunted user dmlaenker let us know that Richmond International has free WiFi; just sniff out the network named "RIC." As always, we've added these to our Airport WiFi Map.

Airport WiFi: Surfing East Coast and West

February 19, 2008 at 3:50 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

Contribute your airport wireless report by leaving it in comments, uploading your airport photo to Jaunted Flickr Photo Pool, or via email, and we will add it to our U.S. Airport Wireless map.

We'd hate for you to forget about our Airport WiFi Guide, our up-to-date map of spots with free Internet access.

Reader Bruce wrote in to tell us about the situation at Charlotte-Douglas International, which sounds pretty cushy:

Charlotte-Douglas offers *free* wi-fi in all concourses, lounges and restaurants, even on the land side. There are comfy rocking chairs and accessible power outlets everywhere, too. And yes, this is full access, not just a jump to the paid service vendors.

We also hear that San Diego, Virgin America's latest destination, has free internet access. Further north, Sacramento International has a free signal throughout its facilities.

Keep sending in those tips, WiFi fans!

Airport WiFi: More Free Places to Surf

January 24, 2008 at 3:30 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

Contribute your airport wireless report by leaving it in comments, uploading your airport photo to Jaunted Flickr Photo Pool, or via email, and we will add it to our U.S. Airport Wireless map.

It's been awhile since we've updated our Airport WiFi Guide, but that hasn't kept you diligent tipsters from filling us in on spots with free Internet access. With all the in-flight WiFi news lately, we thought now would be as good a time as any to heap praise on more airports that let passengers jump online for free.

Tucson International lets flyers go wireless in airport restaurants and is planning to expand the service airport-wide soon. Burlington International in Vermont has free access throughout its facilities. And Manchester-Boston Regional has the same.

Keep sending in those tips, and we'll keep updating our map, free WiFi lovers!

Airport WiFi: Denver's Going Free

December 6, 2007 at 2:00 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

Contribute your airport wireless report by leaving it in comments, uploading your airport photo to Jaunted Flickr Photo Pool, or via email, and we will add it to our U.S. Airport Wireless map.

Denver International is changing its ways. No longer will you have to park yourself outside the Presidents Club because the airport has just opened up its wireless network to everyone, in all terminals.

Not surprisingly, network traffic has increased ten-fold since access went from $8 a day to free, an airport spokesman says. You'll have to click through a couple ads to use the web, but there's no need to fork over any personal data.

We're always happy to see a big airport join the ranks of free Internet providers. While the cash that pay-for-play systems bring is nice, airports are realizing that giving travelers what they want is worth more than a little ancillary revenue. Find more places that let you surf for free on our Airport WiFi Map.

Airport WiFi: Get Online South of the Border

November 28, 2007 at 3:30 PM | by pbb | 0 Comments

Contribute your airport wireless report by leaving it in comments, uploading your airport photo to Jaunted Flickr Photo Pool, or via email, and we will add it to our U.S. Airport Wireless map.

When we put together our airport WiFi map, we focused on US airports not because we're jingoistic but because it's what we know best. Fortunately, our far-flung readers give their passports plenty of use--and fill us in on what they find out there.

Tipster Mark writes from Nicaragua with info on two Central American airports. Augusto C. Sandino International in Managua, Nicaragua is now set up for wireless access, so you can check the surf report before heading to San Juan del Sur.

Another big airport in the region also has free WiFi: Comalapa International outside of San Salvador. It's a hub for TACA, so you might end up here while waiting for a connecting flight. Surfing the web will keep you from eating that extra pupusa.
