New 787 - WiFi not installed yet
I just flew Air Canada’s newest 787 (FIN 860) that just entered service on May 8.
AC has not installed the WiFi hardware on this plane yet, and it was suggested to me that it might not get WiFi installed until the fall due to AC’s summer demand for wide bodies.
If true, this could cause some frustration for some flyers this summer as the flights are being advertised as being WiFi equipped, until the on-board announcement. It would appear that this aircraft will be used on a variety of domestic and long-haul international routes (LHR, FRA, TLV).
