Croatia Airlines to roll out on board Wi-Fi and product upgrade
Croatia Airlines’ incoming Airbus A220 fleet will feature on board Wi-Fi, as well as other product improvements, the carrier has confirmed. According to the “AvioRadar” portal, the company will install Wi-Fi across its two A220-100 and four A220-300 jets, which will be delivered early next year and throughout 2025. The carrier plans to eventually replace its entire fleet with the A220s, with a further six to be delivered in 2025 and 2026. Croatia Airlines’ A220 passengers will be able to enjoy broadband services on their Wi-Fi/WLAN enabled devices including smartphones, tablets, and laptops, allowing them to write emails, surf the Internet, and update social media while in-flight.
The carrier will feature its own digital content which will be available to passengers through the airline’s application, accessible while airborne. Travellers on board Croatia Airlines’ A220s will also enjoy an enhanced hard product. Its A220-100s will have the capacity to seat 127 passengers, while the A220-300s will welcome 148 customers in a two by three seat layout. Each seat will feature USB A and USB C ports, as well as smartphone and tablet holders. The aircraft’s spacious overhead compartments, the largest for a jet its size, will allow for every passenger to accommodate one roller bag. The airline’s CEO, Jasmin Bajić, recently noted, “We have been continually working on increasing the quality of our service”.
Croatia Airlines will be rolling out on board connectivity for the first time in its over thirty-years of operations with the arrival of the A220s. Within the former Yugoslavia, Air Serbia previously provided wireless in-flight Internet across on its narrow and wide-body Airbus fleet until 2020, when the service was quietly discontinued. The Serbian carrier introduced on board Wi-Fi in 2015 and also rolled out its streaming service entitled Elevate Play, which enabled passengers to watch movies, TV shows and listen to music albums through an application on their smart devices while flying the A319s and A320s. This service has also since been discontinued.
