Malaysia Airlines now offers free Wi-Fi in all classes

Free Wi-Fi on 20 widebody aircraft to start with

Passengers on 20 widebody aircraft can stay connected throughout their journey.

Malaysia Airlines is now providing free unlimited Wi-Fi on selected widebody aircraft, regardless of cabin class or loyalty tier.

The airline is now providing the free service on 20 widebody aircraft and intends to expand its reach to some narrowbody aircraft as well.

In July 2023, the airline started free in-flight Wi-Fi for Business Suite and Business Class passengers, as well as Enrich Platinum members, including those seated in Economy Class, with a data cap of 100 MB per sector.

The new offering extends the free Wi-Fi to include all passengers including Economy and non-Enrich members. Enrich is Malaysia Airlines frequent flier programme.

To use the service, passengers simply connect their devices to the ‘MHconnect’ network onboard.
