Apple Music takes off with American Airlines so that subscribers can listen to the full range of Apple Music with no WiFi purchase required. Apple Music subscribers can access over 50 million songs, playlists and music videos on any domestic US American Airlines flight equipped with Viasat satellite WiFi with no WiFi purchase required. American Airlines is the first commercial airline to provide exclusive access to Apple Music through complimentary in-flight WiFi.
“For most travelers, having music to listen to on the plane is just as important as anything they pack in their suitcases,” said Oliver Schusser, vice president of Apple Music. “With the addition of Apple Music on American flights, we are excited that customers can now enjoy their music in even more places. Subscribers can stream all their favorite songs and artists in the air, and continue to listen to their personal library offline, giving them everything they need to truly sit back, relax and enjoy their flight.”
How to listen to Apple Music on American Airlines
1. On any domestic American Airlines flight, connect to the complimentary inflight WiFi and open Apple Music.
2. Listen to your library, the Beats 1 Global Livestream or curated playlists.
3. Sit back, relax and enjoy your flight.
“Our guests want to make the most of their time when flying us. That’s why we’re investing in faster Wi-Fi, a variety of entertainment options, and why we’re so excited to introduce Apple Music to more of our customers,” said Janelle Anderson, vice president of Global Marketing at American. “Providing customers with more ways to stay connected throughout each flight is one way to show we value their business and the time they spend with us.”
American Airline passengers who don’t already have an Apple Music subscription can get Apple Music, sign up onboard and receive free access for three months. For more information on how to get Apple Music on American Airlines go here.
