Virgin Offering Free Internet to Netflix Subscribers
Netflix subscribers flying Virgin America now will be able to watch Netflix with free WiFi on board. Virgin and Netflix have agreed to forgo WiFi fees (normally $5 to $25 an hour) through March 2, 2016, for passengers who have Netflix subscriptions. The news comes on the heels of a similar agreement between Amazon and JetBlue, which gave Amazon Prime members free access to JetBlue internet—usually $9 per hour.
