Free Wi-Fi for festive season on Mango

Mango has introduced G-Connect in-flight Wi-Fi on flights between Durban and Johannesburg.  The service will be available free of charge until January 31. 


Mango expects to transport more than 75 000 passengers on the Durban-Johannesburg route between December 11 and January 31, according to Mango CEO, Nico Bezuidenhout. 


Bezuidenhout said Mango and G-Connect also planned to introduce on-demand entertainment, live television and limited games across its in-flight Wi-Fi network. 


“Imagine an experience beyond email, browsing and tweeting; a fully interactive and user-led entertainment basket available at the click of a mouse or a swipe on a tablet,” he said.
