Today, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) and Delta Air Lines announced SkyMiles Members flying Delta, regardless of their wireless provider, can get <a href="http://t-mobile.com/deltafreewifi">fast, free Wi-Fi all flight long</a>. Both T-Mobile and Delta share the importance of staying connected wherever life leads — even at 30,000 feet. This partnership fuels the vision for a more connected travel experience for all.

“At T-Mobile, we believe staying connected while traveling should be an easy, seamless experience,” said Mike Sievert, T-Mobile CEO. “T-Mobile customers already get free in-flight Wi-Fi, and now we’re partnering with Delta to bring that experience to all SkyMiles Members so that anyone flying Delta can enjoy online access from takeoff to touchdown.”

Travel is expected to soar in 2023, with <a href="https://partner.booking.com/en-gb/click-magazine/trends-insights/key-takeaways-bookingcoms-2023-travel-predictions">over two-thirds of people</a> feeling more optimistic about traveling this year compared to last. And staying connected is such a major priority that <a href="https://partner.booking.com/en-gb/click-magazine/trends-insights/key-takeaways-bookingcoms-2023-travel-predictions">more than half</a> of global travelers say having a phone and connectivity is non-negotiable. And that’s where T-Mobile and Delta come in. Kick back, scroll, stream and say goodbye to in-flight FOMO.

Free Wi-Fi will be rolling out to most domestic mainline Delta flights starting February 1, with more than 700 aircraft expected to offer free Wi-Fi by the end of 2023. Expansion to international and regional routes is expected by the end of 2024. The service includes free Wi-Fi all flight long — available on smartphones, tablets and laptops. To connect, passengers simply need to log in to their Delta SkyMiles account – or sign up for free – while on the ground or on the plane.

What’s more, Delta’s in-flight Wi-Fi connection portal will be refreshed later this spring with the airline’s new Delta Sync Exclusives hub, which will bring the vision of more personalized travel to life. T-Mobile’s partnership with Delta will enable this new SkyMiles-unlocked mobile platform launching later this year that will feature personalized content, entertainment, exclusive offers and more, from brands customers know and love.

“The ability to stay connected while seeing the world is simply foundational. Delta’s new partnership with T-Mobile signifies another exciting step forward as we lead the industry in delivering a differentiated onboard experience that’s as comfortable and personalized as sitting in your own living room,” said Delta CEO Ed Bastian.

Last year, T-Mobile launched <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/coveragebeyond">Coverage Beyond</a> — the Un-carrier move that gave customers on T-Mobile’s most popular plans the ability to search and stream all flight long where available, on four of the biggest U.S. airlines. This expanded partnership with Delta brings more flights with free Wi-Fi for T-Mobile customers and starting February 1, that experience expands to all Delta SkyMiles Members – yep, even AT&T and Verizon customers.

T-Mobile’s industry-leading travel benefits are just part of the unbeatable value that comes with being a T-Mobile customer — it’s almost like finding extra money in the bank every month. Customers can get <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans">$225 worth of extra stuff</a> with their Magenta MAX plan with 2+ lines. For real.

T-Mobile customers now get free in-flight Wi-Fi and streaming where available on United Airlines flights 

BELLEVUE, Wash. — September 23, 2022 — Airplane mode has a whole new meaning for T-Mobile customers flying United. Starting today, eligible T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) customers now get free in-flight Wi-Fi and streaming, where available, on select domestic and short-haul international United flights. As the newest addition to <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/coveragebeyond">Coverage Beyond</a> — T-Mobile’s latest Un-carrier move —  United joins American, Alaska and Delta airlines in providing Un-carrier customers with the ability to text, email, search and stream all flight long where available, now on four of the biggest U.S. airlines.

“Now, T-Mobile customers can stay connected from takeoff to landing and beyond on hundreds more flights, now including United Airlines!” said Mike Sievert, CEO of T-Mobile. “This latest expansion of Coverage Beyond is all part of our goal to keep customers connected even outside the signal of our network, and we’re on a nonstop mission to find new ways to make that happen.”

After one of the biggest summer travel seasons in recent years, the trend is expected to continue this fall and through the holiday season, with <a href="https://www.ustravel.org/research/monthly-travel-data-report">more than a third of Americans</a> planning to take a trip in the next three months. And T-Mobile will take the hassle and worry out of customers’ travel plans, keeping them connected on the road, in the air and overseas.

“Whether it’s for business or leisure, we know staying connected in the air is important, and we’re excited many of T-Mobile’s customers will experience our free inflight Wi-Fi on their phones when flying United,” said Grant Milstead, United’s Vice President of Digital Technology. “With the free in-flight coverage, customers can take advantage of Wi-Fi to text their family and friends or browse their favorite sites and apps.”

T-Mobile’s industry-leading travel benefits are just part of what makes now the best time to be a T-Mobile customer. In addition to free Wi-Fi where available and high-speed data abroad, Magenta MAX customers also get <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/apple-tv-plus-deal">Apple TV+ on Us</a>, <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/support/plans-features/netflix-on-us">Netflix on Us</a>, a free year of <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/benefits/aaa-membership-deal">AAA</a> on Us, <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/customers/scam-shield">Scam Shield Premium</a> and more that adds up to <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans">$225 in free perks</a> every month for families – and that’s just a bonus on top of getting access to the nation’s largest, fastest and most reliable 5G network. At T-Mobile, customers come for the service and stay for the perks – and the Un-carrier won’t stop finding new extras to give them.

As part of Coverage Beyond, customers also get 5GB of free high-speed data each month in 215+ countries and destinations on Magenta MAX, Business Unlimited Ultimate and equivalent Sprint plans. And yes, that includes up to 5G speeds where available. Customers will also get unlimited 256kbps connectivity in all those places, plus free connection all flight long on four eligible flights of their choice per year, with a free hour for every eligible flight after that on Magenta, Business Unlimited Advanced and equivalent Sprint plans. The bottom line? Everyone wins. And this is all in addition to 5GB of high-speed data every month and free calling and texting for Magenta, Magenta MAX and eligible T-Mobile for Business customers in Mexico and Canada.

Coverage Beyond launches on United’s 737s, MAX8s, MAX9s, select 757-300s and select A319s with Wi-Fi supported by Viasat and Thales InFlyt Experience with more flights and Wi-Fi partners to be added soon.

T-Mobile Expands In-flight Coverage to United Airlines - T-Mobile Newsroom

https://www.t-mobile.com/news/_admin/uploads/2022/09/nr-article-united-flights-9-22-22.png

Phone makers are making waves by removing the physical SIM card from newer devices. T-Mobile has a plan for keeping you connected worldwide, whatever your SIM (or eSIM) status.

While the latest big 5G device launch had many people excited — with new bells and whistles like upgraded camera features, improved battery life and always-on display — not everyone was thrilled, namely people with passports.

Many travelers, when visiting a new country, would simply pop in a local SIM card to avoid any surprise bills when roaming, given their plans didn’t cover international travel. So when a major flagship device was unveiled without a slot for a physical SIM card, the news had international travelers super worried — and up in arms.

<a href="https://www.pcmag.com/news/iphone-14s-esim-requirement-irks-some-international-travelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PCMag reported</a> that “the decision to rely exclusively on eSIM isn’t sitting well among international travelers, who use physical SIM cards to change carriers when visiting countries outside the US.”

While <a href="https://www.fastcompany.com/90788357/iphone-14-esim-explained-why-apple-wants-to-kill-physical-sim-cards" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fast Company asked</a>, “Is eSIM a problem for overseas travel?” Simply answering: “Right now, yes.”

Naturally, the outrage on social media was swift and loud, with <a href="https://twitter.com/jvtechtea/status/1567574292745048065" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">one traveler tweeting</a> (and 217 others retweeting): “Now no SIM card so if you’re traveling, you’re forced to pay for international roaming on your eSIM from US carriers?!”

You see, many countries do NOT have the ability to activate eSIMs yet, which means you need a physical SIM card to switch to a local provider… or be on a plan that keeps you covered even beyond the signal of its own network.

A few months ago, in anticipation of this very moment, T-Mobile introduced <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/coveragebeyond">Coverage Beyond</a>, a new initiative purpose-built for travelers and optimized on its <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans">Magenta MAX plan</a>.

Now, when touching down in a foreign country, T-Mobile customers with a 5G-enabled device get <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/international-roaming-plans">5GB of free high-speed data each month</a>, up to 5G speeds where available, in 215+ countries and destinations on Magenta MAX.

Coverage Beyond is a solution to the concerns of the <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/benefits/travel">modern-day traveler</a> who needs to stay connected no matter where they are — and, yes, even if your device only has an eSIM. You can roam and use your phone almost like you’re at home without coming home to a massive overage bill.

Many Americans have taken part in the latest <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Travel-Leisure/Post-COVID-tourism-boom-undiminished-by-inflation-Booking-CEO2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">post-COVID travel boom</a>, and the trend is expected to continue this fall and through the holiday season, with <a href="https://www.ustravel.org/research/monthly-travel-data-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">more than a third of Americans</a> planning to take a trip in the next three months.

With Magenta MAX, even with only an eSIM, they can travel without worry.

Switching to T-Mobile is easier than ever thanks to <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/t-mobile-takes-hassle-and-worry-out-of-switching">Easy Switch in the T-Mobile app</a> that leverages eSIM technology to easily switch to the Un-Carrier in a few simple clicks.

The way our mobile connectivity impacts our lives is apparent in most everything we do today, but what about tomorrow, next year — or even next decade? T-Mobile Chief Marketing Officer Mike Katz joined the T-Mobile Stories “Mobile Diaries” podcast to talk about how 5G is unleashing the potential of our connected lives in ways we couldn’t have imagined even just a few years ago.

Having filled a multitude of roles at most every level for nearly 25 years at T-Mobile, Mike Katz admits there are a couple jobs he hasn’t been allowed to attempt on his journey to becoming the company’s Chief Marketing Officer.

“They haven’t let me be a lawyer or an engineer yet … and that’s probably for good reason!”

While he admits it’s best those titles are left to the given professionals, one could argue he’s actually been engineering something pretty cool in the world of wireless: As CMO, he’s in a unique position to guide others in an increasingly mobile-first existence. 

“One of the promises of 5G and one of the things you’re seeing already is that these high-capacity networks can enable literally anything that can be connected to be connected, which was a big limitation of previous generation networks,” Katz explains. “I do think we are going to see a big change in just the number of things around us that are connected, and how those things all communicate with each other. One of the reasons you hear about self-driving cars being a big 5G use case isn’t so much because you need 5G for an individual car to be able to self-drive. It’s all the cars on the road being also interconnected, which takes massive capacity, really low latency and wide distribution of network. And I think you’re going to see examples of similar kinds of use cases happen across multiple industries over the next few years.”

Mike’s clearly driving toward something big when it comes to harnessing the power of the latest wireless technology in this smart highway we call life. He recently sat down with the hosts of T-Mobile Stories podcast series “<a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/mobile-diaries-podcast">Mobile Diaries</a>” to review some of the white-hot wireless advances that have been made since the beginning of the pandemic, and <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/5g">how our 5G future is swiftly coming into focus</a>. You can listen here and read an edited version of the conversation below.

What have been the biggest changes you’ve seen in the world or wireless since your early days at T-Mobile?

core/heading

When I started at T-Mobile and its predecessor company, VoiceStream, mobile phones were kind of an accessory. And they were really a luxury item that very few people had, and they really couldn’t do much beyond place phone calls. And you look at today, and this is the main connection to the internet, and to pretty much any other information source that we get in our lives. I’m really proud that I get to do this this job at T-Mobile. It’s one of the reasons why I've [been here] for so long. But I also know that the most important thing I do is being a husband, and dad to my four kids. And so for me, it’s about getting the opportunity to spend a bunch of time with them. And I think that’s one of the nice things that our technology enables, because it does enable, in some sense, time, right? The fact that I could be across the world on a vacation with my family, and still check in and have a productive session at work is extremely valuable to me because it allows me to invest more time in the thing that’s most important to me, which is all those people at my house. 

On our podcast, “Mobile Diaries,” we have been exploring emerging mobile personas and archetypes coming out of the past couple years of the pandemic. Can you share with us a little about where you see we all are today, and what’s coming down the pike in terms of mobile lifestyle and technology?

I still think we’re in the very early days of 5G in terms of its capabilities, and the kinds of experiences and products that it can enable. I think what you're seeing right now with 5G is use cases that are beginning to take advantage of the massive amount of capacity that 5G enables. A really great example for that is <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/home-internet">home internet</a>. We just had our earnings last week, and we announced that we have 560,000 new home internet customers on T-Mobile. And what it's telling you is that first, there's a huge demand for alternatives to traditional home internet access, but also secondly, it really underscores the <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/5g-home-internet-steps-into-the-spotlight">power of what a 5G network can do.</a> A few years ago, you were talking about light web browsing on a smartphone. And now you have 5G networks literally powering your connection inside your house, which is one of the most important connections in your life, but it’s also the one that's the most strained because you've got Netflix and gaming and automation devices and security devices.

Unlike other technologies — say, broadband — that have left a lot of people stuck in the digital divide, something like 5G offers great promise for closing that gap. Could you offer a little insight into that, and even how T-Mobile itself is uniquely positioned to address that — and maybe even some examples of how it already has?

I think it’s something that we’ve known for a while, but the pandemic really reinforced to us is that connectivity is such an essential part of our lives and those that don't have it are really left out of vital parts of our community. I’ve had the incredible privilege to be a part of work that's happened over the last couple of years that we call <a href="http://www.t-mobile.com/p10m">Project 10Million</a>, where you saw the importance of this technology and how it’s changed people’s lives. The one story that really comes to mind is what happened in New York City at the beginning of the pandemic, where the city had a really tough decision in March 2020 of shutting the schools down. It’s the largest school district in America. Over a million children attend and there was a large percentage of kids, something like 500,000, that had no broadband access at home. Just put that in perspective. The largest city, in the richest country in the world, with 500,000 kids that had no broadband connectivity. I like using this example because it shows you how much of a problem we still have. But it also is a great demonstration of how mobile can solve some of these problems at scale. And that’s exactly the opportunity that we had with New York, was to come in, provide a connectivity solution that used our wireless network, and provide kids with the connection back to their classrooms so they could fully participate in school. And I'm really excited about Project 10Million, because it is our commitment to provide 10 million of these connections across America. We’ve already seen over 3 million of them utilized to date and counting.

We couldn’t have even imagined our mobile lives today, even just a few years ago. In your view, where are we headed, and what’s to come?

I do think that very quickly you’ll start to see some things that really impact consumers. The ones that I think will be the earliest to market will be things pertaining to the Metaverse as well as AR, VR and XR kinds of experiences. With the amount of investment that’s happening across the world, I think we’re going to start to see the Metaverse going from words on paper into a set of experiences that are really going to change the way that we interact with each other. Both social interactions and commerce interactions are going to take place in a fully digitized world between avatars. But it’s surprising me how fast it’s coming to fruition.

I also think, closely related to that, will be experiences with gaming that can take advantage of mass, high-capacity connectivity with really low latency that’s widely distributed across the whole country. I think it is a really interesting environment for gaming, as well as game developers creating new unique experiences that haven’t been available before. We’re at the very early days, but the capabilities that are in the ground right now with 5G are incredibly exciting and they’re just waiting for developers to take advantage of them.

We just aired <a href="https://link.chtbl.com/e6DCVdKd">an episode on the evolution of connected travel</a> and how that technology has changed even since the pandemic started to accelerate the way we travel today. T-Mobile had a recent Un-carrier move called <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/coveragebeyond">Coverage Beyond</a>, which was itself a big evolution in connected travel. Can you offer some insights?

This move, <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/coveragebeyond">Coverage Beyond</a>, really builds on some of the most famous moves that T-Mobile has ever done, like Simple Global, which for the first time enabled people to very simply move outside the borders of the U.S. and not have to worry about their mobile connectivity. What we did with this move was take some of those benefits and make them a lot better and also make them more contemporary to the way that people use their devices today and with new technologies that are available. So, for instance, when our customers go to over 200 countries, they can turn on their phone and receive whatever the highest speed network is that's available in that local country. And more and more often that's going to be 5G.

We also really enhanced the connectivity while you’re going to that destination on your airplane. For some time there has been limited Wi-Fi capabilities available in airplanes, and we did an Un-carrier move a while back in partnership with <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/gogo-inflight">Gogo</a> that allowed T-Mobile customers to connect while they’re on the plane for text messaging. Now what’s happened since that move is the technology on airplanes has advanced from a ground-based technology to a satellite-based technology. And the bandwidth is significantly better. You can actually stream on planes. With Coverage Beyond, we dramatically expanded our partnerships with Gogo and are essentially working with all the major airlines in the U.S. so when customers are on the plane, not only do they have access on more flights, the access that they have includes, when available, full streaming. You literally can open up your Netflix account or your Amazon Prime account and you can be streaming on the plane!

The other part of this that I'm really excited about is a big partnership that we did with AAA that gives all of our customers on <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/offers/magenta-max-best-phone-plan-for-5g">Magenta MAX</a> a free <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/aaa-on-us">AAA subscription</a>. And we amped up some of our <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/offers/t-mobile-tuesdays">T-Mobile Tuesdays</a> offers like our most popular offer, which is a partnership with Shell where we give discounted gas and increased the discount to 25 cents a gallon. All of these moves we feel like were important because of <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/cmo-mike-katz-tech-tips-for-modern-travel">the moment that we're in right now</a>, not only this summer, one of the busiest travel summers that we've seen in a long time, but also because we’re in the middle of a 40-year record inflation and everything around us is getting more expensive. While people want to travel, they’re really concerned about the cost of traveling from airline tickets to gas. And we thought it was important for us to get these moves out at the beginning of summer to take some of that stress away from customers so that they know that T-Mobile’s got their back when they travel. I’m really proud of the team that brought these because at the middle of them were our customers and thinking about, “What do our customers need in a summer where things are getting more expensive and they really want to travel?” I think this this was a big answer to that question customers have.

After more than two years of being cooped up, most of us are overdue for some fun and relaxation. The beach is beckoning my family this summer, and we’re not alone: <a href="https://wttc.org/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=nv1cvhnBBo4%3d&portalid=0">U.S. travel and tourism spending</a> is expected to exceed pre-pandemic levels by 6.2%, contributing about $2 trillion to the U.S. economy. And <a href="https://www.ustravel.org/research/monthly-travel-data-report">28% of travelers plan to spend significantly more</a> than their 2019 travel budgets for marquee trips this summer.

If you’re looking forward to travel adventures of your own, I can’t help you escape long lines and unpredictable weather. But I do have a handful of tech tips to get you up to speed on modern traveling. Because as much as we long to get away from it all, staying connected and saving money is more crucial than ever.

Remember sweating the extra charges you’d face on your cellphone bill after an international trip? Good riddance to the days of paying extra abroad just to stay connected with family, friends and co-workers. With T-Mobile’s latest Un-carrier move, <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/coveragebeyond">Coverage Beyond</a>, customers on qualifying plans get 5 gigs of free high-speed data at up to 5G speeds, where available, in more than 210 countries and destinations. That’s on top of free connectivity and streaming all flight long on the biggest U.S. airlines.

As CMO of a tech company, digital and data dependence is constantly on my mind. And as a dad of four, including teens and a tween, so is keeping the family peace. No one should have to fear hidden fees or jump through hoops just to use their device.
