Wi-fi in the Sky: Air India muse on Refurbishing Aircraft interior


The archaic regulatory policies of India that continues to freeze out in-flight Internet in the country may soon tie up loose ends. The Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA) is anxious to provide on-board Wi-Fi on national carrier Air India. However the final decision lies with the Ministry of Home Affairs (India’s homeland security) which is reluctant to give a green flag to it due to security concerns.

Air India has long toyed with the idea of offering in-flight internet to passengers. The carrier is once again weighing its options on revamping its wide-body aircraft, especially the Boeing 777 that cover long haul international routes. It is the only Indian carrier that flies non-stop to American destinations like New York, San Francisco, Washington & Chicago.



Recognizing the boredom & exhaustion caused by 15-17 hours of travelling without Wi-Fi or any other sort of in-flight entertainments (IFE), Wi-Fi on long haul flights indeed makes sense.
