There's no sign up required to use In-Flight Connection. Make sure you're on an eligible rate plan, your phone is Wi-Fi enabled, and you've made at least one Wi-Fi call on your current device and SIM card.

On larger flights, in-flight Wi-Fi may be available at the gate. Generally, the cabin crew will provide instructions once in-flight Wi-Fi is available, and most flights will have information on how to connect in the seat-back pocket.

With In-Flight Connection, free messaging includes text messages (SMS) and data messages using Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, and iMessage. You can also use the social media app X (formally known as Twitter) via SMS with in-flight texting. See X support for support and details.

As part of In-Flight Connection, eligible customers get free connectivity with streaming, where available, all flight long on nearly 100% of domestic flights on partner airlines: Alaska, American, Delta and United. We partner with Intelsat, Viasat, Thales and Panasonic to give free in-flight Wi-Fi on Alaska Airlines, United Airlines, American Airlines, and select Delta Air Lines flights. T-Mobile is also a proud partner of Delta, giving SkyMiles Members fast, free in-flight Wi-Fi on Delta and on us on most Viasat flights within the U.S.

This sim is so strange. I flew multiple flights today. First from Memphis to Greenville MS and then from Houston TX to San Antonio TX and then from Nelson New Zealand westward and never saw any issues with ground scenery. Im in southeast US ifthat helps solve the mystery.

I'm considering purchasing the $8 in-flight wifi for my 8 hours worth of flights this Friday. I'd like to stream shows on Discovery+, which doesn't allow downloads. I see that Southwest says that streaming on Netflix and HBO is disabled and I'm trying to get an answer from Southwest directly...

If you want to watch Discovery that is free on the live TV portion and the TV services work pretty well unless your traveling internationally, (like to the Caribbean it drops off when you get too far south, like to Aruba.)

I have been getting "Bandwidth is too low for data streaming, switch to off line mode now" for a number of days now since the latest upgrade. Never had this before and I have been flying in MSFS 2020 since it first came out first using the FBW A320 and then with the PMDG 737 and the Fenix, my system was able too work very well indeed. It is rather distressing as I can only fly off line now. One good thing is I am able to concentrate on the 1000 aboard the C 172 and flying using the instrument as per pic with the occasional look outside at the dreadful off-line scenery. Better than nothing though I suppose!!!

Does anybody else have this problem?
I have a fairly powerful computer which has been working with my custom settings for a few months but now THIS. What can be the problem I wonder??
Could anybody out there help with any ideas please?

Solved it for me. It's to do with the Google maps mod which I had a little look at last week. I reverted back to default Bing but the mod puts a couple of lines into the "hosts" file which MSFS doesn't like.

Ping times between your PC and the MS servers can be affected by so many things - most of which are beyond our control. Asobo/MS really need to adjust the threshold for when the error is triggered - simple as that - or the whole sim needs to be re-engineered to take into account that the Internet will *always* suffer slight delays/disruptions and the sim (or game) should be able to negotiate them correctly, using caching etc. It really is NOT rocket science.

I can't find the original post, but somebody once analysed the server traffic stats and concluded it was a server mis-configuration: that after only a handful of failed packets the server simply stops listening (ie. drops the connection - and we get the "connection lost" pop-up). Re-negotiating data packets elegantly is also not exactly rocket science. MS have set their servers up (badly, IMHO) to protect them from excess load - rather than solving the basic problem: add more capacity. Don't tell me they can't afford it.

Agreed. The low bandwidth notice pops up every now and then but has no apparent effect, so I ignore it. I will add that it makes no difference (for me) whether the google maps app is on or off -- I have it turned on and there is no problem.

I concur with the overall sentiments expressed in this thread and others. This is the most annoying experience I have encountered in the sim. After an enjoyable 'flight' in the superb WT cj4 then to line up on very short final only for it to be fatally interrupted by the messages is in fact beyond annoying.

I first encountered this about 2 to 3 months ago, having previously made no changes to my system (other than installing Win11 - is this common?). I have only about 3 to 5 community entries (NZ mesh for example). I have ample band width available.
