Are there any ways I can optimize my experience during my flight?

Please follow the suggestions below to help optimize your inflight Internet experience.

To help save battery life you may:

  • Turn off the GPS, location services and/or bluetooth during the flight
  • Turn down the brightness on your device’s screen
  • Enable low battery mode

To help optimize your connection you may:

  • Make sure your device and any apps you’d like to use are up to date before you fly.
  • Pause/disable auto-sync for any apps or programs that may try to refresh once you are connected. Apps syncing in the background can impact your experience.
  • Outlook users, you can try to use webmail instead of the Outlook client and change your Outlook settings to download headers instead of the full message.

My connection is slower on my corporate issued laptop than other devices.

Laptops with Zscaler installed may encounter a slower experience while connected to in-flight internet. If your laptop does have Zscaler installed, we have some steps your IT department can implement to the Zscaler settings that may improve your experience.

Please reach out to us in chat or email us at [email protected] if you’d like have your IT department receive this information.
