Coverage, streaming and connecting." --- Airline · United States # JetBlue Wi-Fi JetBlue’s Fly-Fi is free for every passenger on every plane. Viasat satellites power it today, and JetBlue plans to start adding Amazon Leo in 2027. Provider [Viasat](https://kilobat.app/in-flight-wifi/viasat), Amazon Leo Network See connection instructions below; the network name may depend on the aircraft. Free Fly-Fi is free for everyone, on every JetBlue-operated flight. **Checked 1 November 2026.** Prices and policies as of November 2026. ## Who provides it - **[Viasat](https://kilobat.app/in-flight-wifi/viasat)** Geostationary satellite Wi-Fi behind Fly-Fi on JetBlue’s fleet today. - **Amazon Leo** Low-orbit satellites planned from 2027, starting on planes that now fly the original Fly-Fi system. ## What’s free - Fly-Fi is free for everyone, on every JetBlue-operated flight. JetBlue’s pages mention no pass to buy. - Live TV is also available on all JetBlue-operated flights. As of November 2026. ## Prices There is nothing to buy. JetBlue says Fly-Fi is free on every aircraft and plans to keep it free. As of November 2026. ## Streaming and calls JetBlue says Fly-Fi lets you stream video and use several devices at once. It doesn’t publish speed figures. It says Amazon Leo will bring faster speeds and lower latency. ## VPNs JetBlue doesn’t publish a VPN rule. ## Which planes have it Fly-Fi is on all JetBlue-operated flights, but JetBlue says coverage varies by aircraft. Service reaches over the Atlantic, Central America and the Caribbean as well as the US. The present Fly-Fi service uses geostationary satellite capacity. The ITU estimates about 500 ms of round-trip propagation delay for a geostationary satellite, before other network delays. Amazon Leo is due to start in 2027, in phases. ## How to connect 1. In your device’s Wi-Fi settings, join JetBlue’s free Fly-Fi network. 2. Sign in to Fly-Fi when its page opens, then browse, message or stream. JetBlue’s pages describe signing in to “our free Fly-Fi network” but don’t give the exact network name or the sign-in steps. ## On board with Kilobat Kilobat is a Mac menu-bar app that shows what each app sends and holds back what can wait. On a plane: - **The sign-in page.** When it doesn’t open by itself, the menu bar says **This Wi-Fi wants you to sign in**, with **Open sign-in page**. Turn your VPN on after you’ve signed in. - **Mark it metered.** macOS treats plane Wi-Fi as unlimited. Mark it **Metered** in Kilobat’s Wi-Fi menu or with `kilobat networks cost metered`, and Kilobat skips its own speed tests. If automatic switching is enabled, it switches to Travel. - **Updates wait.** With Pro, paused updaters enabled and the network filter on, macOS Software Update, App Store downloads, Google Updater and Microsoft AutoUpdate wait for an unmetered network. The apps keep working. - **See what’s using it.** Every app’s upload and download, live in the menu bar, so a messaging-only plan isn’t spent on a sync you forgot. - **Send later.** A big upload, such as Dropbox syncing a folder, shows as a row with its speed. With Pro, **Send later** can hold it until you’re on unmetered Wi-Fi again, for up to eight hours while Kilobat is open. - **Know what’s slow.** Health shows latency and loss, and with Pro their history through the flight. Those measurements can help you investigate a slow connection. When Slack or Zoom won’t load, [Is it them or me?](https://kilobat.app/is-it-down) reads the service’s status page.
