Turkish Airlines to offer free messaging on board flights
ISTANBUL, April 8, 2023
Turkish Airlines is offering passengers free and limitless messaging onboard its flights, thus taking the national flagcarrier's concept of privileged travel to newer heights.
With the latest innovations in terms of internet access on board, Turkish Airlines continues to offer its guests an enhanced in-flight internet experience as communication has become an essential facet of life.
Flying to more countries than any other airline, Turkish Airlines will be offering free and limitless messaging services to all passengers on international flights where internet access is available, with the motto 'Enjoy Limitless Messaging' through applications such as WhatsApp, Messenger or iMessage, along with others.
On the new service, Turkish Airlines CEO Bilal Ekşi said: "We are adding another innovative development to the countless improvements we made for Türkiye’s aviation sector as the national flag carrier."
"By combining our innovative approach with customer satisfaction, we are ensuring our passengers will be able to freely message their loved ones above clouds, staying in contact with them without any limits," stated Eksi.
Since this messaging service is complimentary to all Miles&Smiles member passengers, even non-members will be able to benefit from this service upon filling out the Miles&Smiles membership form available before or during the flight, he added.
According to him, Miles&Smiles Classic Plus, Elite and Elite Plus members will also be benefitting from enhanced free internet packages.
Aiming to provide its passengers with privileges beyond their expectations at every stage of their journey, Turkish Airlines will first launch this service on its aircraft with internet access by Turk Telekom, and then gradually on all aircraft with internet connection, he added.
