What does it take to get your heart rate up? Candy? Flowers? Or perhaps free WiFi? That’s the route to romance T-Mobile is taking, offering everyone — including non-customers — an hour of complimentary Gogo WiFi on domestic flights this weekend.
If you’re traveling on a Gogo-equipped plane flying somewhere in the U.S. between June 24-26, T-Mobile says the free WiFi offer is open to everyone with a smartphone, “including Verizon and AT&T customers who never get thanked by their carrier.”
After this weekend, the offer for an hour of free Gogo will still stand for all T-Mobile customers on a branded plan.
“We want to show everybody what it feels like to #GetThanked and travel like a T-Mobile customer!” said CEO John Legere in the company’s press release.
Here’s how it works, regardless of your phone carrier: Turn WiFi on, open a Web browser, and then click on the T-Mobile banner that pops up on a Gogo start screen page. The offer ends June 26 at 11 p.m. ET.
T-Mobile customers will also get free, unlimited data and texting throughout Europe all summer long as well, the company announced — except for Andorra… again.
“Except Andorra. Apologies to the proud people of Andorra!” T-Mobile adds in the fine print for the offer.
Cross your fingers that WiFi actually works — Mobile hasn’t been having the easiest time handling promotions lately: its ongoing T-Mobile Tuesdays program was beset with server issues in its first week. In the second, customers had issues getting their promised free pizza, leading T-Mobile to swap out pizza for Lyft rides. This week, it was back to more server errors for a lot of angry T-Mobile subscribers.
