How to Get Wi-Fi on A Plane | How Much Does Air Canada Wi-Fi Cost?

Air Canada offers Wi-Fi on select North American, Caribbean and international flights. On my recent flight from Calgary to Toronto, I had an opportunity to find out more on Air Canada Wi-Fi prices on flights.

To use Air Canada’s Wi-Fi, you need to have a supported browser such as Chrome, Firefox, or Edge. Air Canada’s website has a full listing of all browsers that are supported. Also, you can check if your flight will have Wi-Fi up to 5 days ahead of your trip.

You can connect to Air Canada’s Wi-Fi in 2 ways: by typing in aircanadawifi.com or rougewifi.com (on Air Canada Rouge flights) in the search bar of any supported browser or by starting the Wi-Fi connection process from the Air Canada app.

I saw Air Canada offering a variety of packages. There is no free Wi-Fi service on Air Canada flights. The below options are what I saw on Nov 18, 2021, YYC-YYZ Flight. For the most updated info, search Air Canada Wi-Fi and visit the Air Canada website.

1 Hour Browse Pass (CA$7)

Full Flight Browse Pass (CA$9.75)

1 Hour Stream Pass (CA$10.25)

Full Flight Stream Pass (CA$15.50)

1 Hour Ultimate Pass (CA$13.75)

Full Flight Ultimate Pass (CA$20.75)

Air Canada North America Plan $65.95

Air Canada GlobalPlan $89.95

Prices seemed to be very reasonable and on par with other airlines. I tried connecting via the Air Canada app, which I installed before boarding the flight.

Most of the time, the process seemed to work fine. There were some glitches and sometimes I had keep pressing the same button a few times to get to the next section.

I didn’t buy any of the plans, but the process to connect and use Wi-Fi on a plane looked simple enough and I don’t mind buying it on my next flight.
