Coverage in Inflight Data

Available on over 25+ major airlines (including Emirates, Lufthansa, Singapore Airlines, and Etihad) and hundreds of aircraft equipped with AeroMobile or OnAir technology. Coverage is global, though service is typically disabled during takeoff and landing (active only above 20,000 feet).

Network Quality

Connects to the AeroMobile or OnAir network name. Speeds are typically equivalent to 3G or light 4G, designed for messaging (WhatsApp/iMessage), emails, and social media scrolling. It is generally not suitable for high-definition video streaming.

Hotspot Ready

Most in-flight eSIMs (such as those from GigSky or WalletRoam) are locked to the specific device they are installed on. Due to the high cost and limited bandwidth of satellite data, tethering/hotspots are usually restricted to prevent rapid data drain.

Quick setup for all iOS and Android devices. Full support available 24/7 if you need help.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I activate my Inflight Data plan while in the air?

Unlike ground plans, activation is automated. Before takeoff, ensure your WalletRoam eSIM is installed and "Data Roaming" is ON. Once the aircraft reaches cruising altitude and the crew announces that roaming is available, simply switch your mobile data source to your WalletRoam eSIM. The system will automatically identify the inflight network and activate your plan.

How does this differ from traditional airline Wi-Fi?

WalletRoam uses AeroMobile and SITA inflight roaming technology, which works like a cellular network rather than a Wi-Fi hotspot. This means you don't have to deal with clunky login portals or credit card entries mid-flight; your phone simply treats the aircraft as a new "roaming" country and connects directly.

How does the Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) credit work for inflight data?

It’s completely automated. Just ensure you have credit in your WalletRoam before you board. As soon as you connect to the AeroMobile or SITA network in the air, your data usage will be deducted in real-time from your wallet balance. There is no need to manually purchase a fixed data pack before takeoff; your balance follows you from the ground to the sky.

What happens to my wallet credit if the aircraft doesn't support the service?

Since you are using the PAYG wallet model, your credit is never "wasted" on a specific flight. If your particular aircraft ends up not being equipped with roaming technology, no data will be consumed, and your wallet balance remains untouched. You can simply use that same credit for your ground data upon arrival or on your next supported flight.
