Virgin America giving passengers Google Chromebooks during flights

Flying on Virgin America this summer? You may be in luck. From July 1st through September 30th, some Virgin America passengers will have free access to Google Chromebooks during their flights. Chromebooks will be available on flights between Boston, Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, and San Francisco. Free access to WiFi will be provided by Google.

“Our goal has always been to use the best in technology to reinvent the travel experience… and help bring some fun back to flying. We’re delighted to team up with Google yet again in a way that keeps our guests entertained and connected — in both the physical and virtual clouds,” said Porter Gale, vice president of marketing for Virgin America.

Google and Virgin are also developing an app for Chrome OS to help travelers plan and prepare for trips. It’s great to see companies already embracing the Chromebook. Hopefully this is the first of many stories like this!
