With All Saints' Day holidays kicking off on October 20, 2016, many travelers are jetting off to unwind after the back-to-school hustle. Flying offers speed and convenience, but long airport waits can drag on—even with duty-free distractions. Finding a free seat to read or browse your phone helps, though international data roaming adds up quickly. Flight search expert Skyscanner has compiled a list of airports where you can connect for free.
Skyscanner reports that nearly half of Europe's key airports offer unlimited free WiFi. Standouts include Paris Charles de Gaulle and Orly, Lyon-Saint Exupéry, and Nice-Côte d'Azur. You'll also find complimentary access at Alicante, Barcelona-El Prat, Amsterdam, Ankara Esenboğa, Antalya, Birmingham-West Midlands, Copenhagen-Kastrup, Dublin, Izmir-Adnan Menderes, Frankfurt, Gran Canaria, Helsinki-Vantaa, Istanbul Atatürk, London-Heathrow, Lisbon, Madrid, Malaga, Milan (Linate and Malpensa), Moscow (Domodedovo and Sheremetyevo), Munich, Palma de Mallorca, Prague, Rome-Fiumicino, St. Petersburg-Pulkovo, Tenerife, Vienna, and Warsaw. For others, expect a free trial (20 minutes to 3 hours), then paid options like €13 for 2 hours in Zurich, €12 for 4 hours in Düsseldorf, or €9.90 for unlimited in Marseille-Provence.
Travel tech expert Anil Polat has built an interactive map of WiFi passwords at airports worldwide—including those in restaurants—updated regularly on his site. Access it via the WiFox app on iOS or Google Play for $1.99.
Now you're set for seamless connectivity. Safe travels—and grab a magazine if needed!
