‘Super-Fi’ = super fast: Abu Dhabi International Airport launches enhanced internet connectivity

Abu Dhabi Airports Chief Executive Officer Bryan Thompson: “Super-Fi is not just Wi-Fi, it is incredibly fast and reliable Wi-fi, allowing our customers to keep in touch while using our fantastic facilities.”

UAE. Abu Dhabi Airports today announced the roll-out of a new ‘Super-Fi’ service that will increase internet upload and download speeds to a maximum of 200 mbps per user at Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH).

The Super-Fi internet access, which the company said is among the fastest airport Wi-Fi services in the world, has been installed and tested throughout all three terminals. It will provide millions of travellers with enhanced online connectivity.

Internet access is free for public use throughout AUH terminals.

The move is part of Abu Dhabi Airports’ commitment to enhanced passenger experiences, and an integral part of the company’s journey of digitalisation and innovation.

Abu Dhabi Airports Chief Executive Officer Bryan Thompson said: “We understand just how important Wi-Fi has become to the travelling public. At Abu Dhabi Airports, we value our customers first and foremost, placing a primary focus on their experiences while coming and going from the UAE’s capital.

Thompson added: “We are proud to have rolled out Super-Fi across the entirety of Abu Dhabi International Airport, free for all of our travellers. Super-Fi is not just Wi-Fi, it is incredibly fast and reliable Wi-fi allowing our customers to keep in touch while using our fantastic facilities. Technology is at the heart of our digital transformation strategy, and this improved internet infrastructure will open the door to further smart services and connected solutions.”

In October, Abu Dhabi Airports and global IT and networking giant Cisco signed an agreement that provides AUH with “cutting-edge” solutions that will support its digital transformation strategy, including operational efficiency.

Super-Fi connectivity will enhance the already elevated customer experience at Abu Dhabi International Airport’s magnificent 700,000sq m Midfield Terminal Building, which opens in 2019.

“Access to fast internet is a crucial factor that makes a big difference for our travellers. Providing our customers with enhanced connectively services is in line with our vision of becoming the world’s leading airports group.”
