Boingo wifi for Mastercard holders

[chistery]

Isn’t this a downgrade? Not sure why they are pleased to announce it?

We are pleased to advise of some upcoming enhancements to your Boingo Wi-Fi for Mastercard® Cardholders benefit, so we are working with Mastercard to make it easier than ever.

On March 9, 2023, cardholders eligible for Inflight Wi-Fi will be able to connect 12 times per calendar year for 90 minutes per session. This change does not limit the amount of data or sessions that can be consumed during each flight.

Certainly sounds like it.

Which Mastercard product are you using for the benefit, by the way?

[Gary]

Not unexpected after reading the word “enhancements.” We have it from Virgin CC+.

Any other cards that give this benefit? Could just open another Boingo account linked to the other card to give further 12 sessions? Well at least still unlimited for the half term.

Also what is a session? If I use wifi for 39 mins, eat dinner, then re-connect is that 2 sessions

Anyone else have problems linking their card with Boingo?
I have the £160 card but, when I put the number in on the site, it says ‘technical difficulties – check your site administrator email’ (or something similar) and to ring the number on the back of the card.

Did you all manage to register without this hassle?

Thanks

Yes.

The Yonder credit card is also a MC World Elite and qualifies for the Boingo WiFi.
