Allegiant Air is considering adding inflight Wi-Fi to its planes, according to CEO Greg Anderson. The airline has had initial discussions about equipping its Airbus fleet with Starlink Wi-Fi, similar to United Airlines. Although no agreement has been reached yet, Anderson stated that providing internet access is becoming increasingly important for passengers.
Anderson highlighted that much of the infrastructure needed for Wi-Fi is already available on Allegiant's new Boeing 737 MAX 8-200 jets. However, he did not provide a specific timeline for when the service might be available.
In addition to Wi-Fi, Allegiant is exploring the possibility of introducing premium seating options. Currently, the airline offers "Allegiant Extra," which provides additional legroom in several rows. By the end of this year, 75% of Allegiant's aircraft will feature this option.
