MWeb has launched its WiFi zone at Lanseria Airport in Johannesburg.
“The nature of air travel and time spent in airports highlighted these environments as ideal locations to implement the MWeb WiFi zone solution. As of November 2014 Lanseria International Airport, located in Johannesburg’s north, has become the first airport to go live with this solution,’’ says Nathier Kasu, GM of MWeb WiFi.
“Today’s air passenger is very connected. Smart phones, laptops and tablets are a must-have accessory for travelers, because it keeps them in touch with their world – even when stuck in an airport lobby,” adds Kasu. “MWeb has recognised this demand and invested in bringing its world-class Internet experience to savvy users.”
MWeb WiFi zones are more than hotspots: a WiFi zone designates a large area with multiple access points, so no need to huddle around the same pillar with a dozen other travelers, all trying to stay within the small pool of Internet access.
“We are happy to launch the MWeb WiFi service for our passengers as we know that staying connected is important to our travelers,” says Gavin Sayce, CEO of Lanseria International Airport.
“Nowadays, passengers quite rightly demand that the Internet should be available everywhere at international airports, be it for business or leisure, and in many cases it makes travel-related administration much easier as well. The availability of MWEB WiFi at our airport will offer improved connectivity and new options for users with heavy data needs, or with multiple devices.”
MWeb WiFi has also launched the MWeb WiFi Unwired Spacelounge, which will be on display at Lanseria over the December season.
