Wi-Fi is coming to the US Virgin Islands’ seaplane terminals.

The Virgin Islands Next Generation Network (viNGN) and Seaborne Airlines have announced a new partnership to bring Wi-Fi to travelers in the USVI.

All Seaborne Seaplane passengers traveling between St Croix and St Thomas will now have access to free and fast internet from viNGN’s hotspots locations at Seaplane terminals.

“We believe that the transformational power of viNGN resides in its ability to make daily life easier and more convenient for Virgin Islanders,” said Dr Tonjia S. Coverdale, President and Chief Executive Officer of viNGN. “Our partnership with Seaborne allows us to assist commuter, leisure, and other travelers to stay connected whether it is for business or pleasure…and at superfast speeds. This is the real power of technology, its ability to transform lives, and we have that power right here at home in the US Virgin Islands.

Travelers can access the internet for personal and business use by selecting the “viNGN_Hotspot” network on their computers and mobile devices.

“Seaborne Airlines and the Virgin Islands Next Generation Network (viNGN) are both privileged to work in one of the most important and honorable undertakings – that of connecting people,” said Gary Foss, President and Chief Executive Officer of Seaborne.
