Dubai Airports announced on Tuesday that it has upgraded the Wi-Fi service across its terminals to provide flyers superfast internet access while they wait for their flight.

Aptly called WOW-Fi, the service offers a top speed of up to 100 megabits per second (mbps), about ten times faster than what many internet users would get at home in the UAE.

The launch of the service, which is said to be the fastest being offered by any airport in the world, follows Dubai Airports’ launch of an upgraded free unlimited high-speed Wi-Fi connection across Dubai International and Dubai World Central in December 2016.

With the improved connection, users can now access social media or browse the internet much faster. The airport’s landing page has also been simplified, enabling travellers to connect with just one click.

Dubai Airports said that it is also investing in more than 6,000 new Wi-Fi access points to upgrade the entire wireless network infrastructure across both airports in Dubai and enhanced the internet links to 5Gps each to provide the required bandwidth and resilience.

“With WOW-Fi, passengers will get a speed of up to 100mbps to enable them to quickly download or upload emails, pictures, videos and social media updates and then get on with enjoying the airport or connecting to their friends and family across the world,” said Michael Ibbitson, executive vice president of technology and infrastructure at Dubai Airports.

The  new service has already been used by an average of more than 100,000 unique users daily during its soft launch. “We are certain the WOW-Fi experience will impress the 89 million passengers we expect to welcome at DXB in 2017,” Ibbitson added.
