Air Canada to Offer Free Fast Wi-Fi for Aeroplan Members

Air Canada announced today it plans to roll out fast, free streaming-quality Wi-Fi, sponsored by Bell. Beginning in May 2025, this complimentary service will be available to Aeroplan members on Wi-Fi equipped aircraft for flights within North American and Sun markets.

The airline also said that it plans to expand free Wi-Fi service to long-haul international routes in 2026. 

Fast, free Wi-Fi will be available on Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge and most Air Canada Express aircraft. This initiative builds on the existing free Wi-Fi texting service sponsored by Bell, available since May 2023 for Aeroplan members.

“Reliable access to streaming-quality Wi-Fi is becoming essential for both business and leisure travelers. That’s why we’re upgrading our fleet with the latest technologies,” said Mark Nasr, Executive Vice President, Marketing and Digital at Air Canada, and President of Aeroplan. “We’re excited to offer fast, free Wi-Fi to all Aeroplan Members, with a customer-focused rollout plan that includes installation of service on the Air Canada Express Q400s, including those that fly from Toronto’s Billy Bishop Airport. Although other Canadian airlines have announced free Wi-Fi services, not all have accelerated installation across their fleets or committed to offering the service comprehensively. Air Canada plans to offer fast, free Wi-Fi across its entire fleet and will begin rolling out this service in early Spring.  What’s more, over 85% of aircraft will be connected from day one, with the remaining installations being a priority throughout 2025.”
