ITASCA — eBay is giving passengers aboard all Gogo equipped Delta Air Lines flights the gift of free Wi-Fi this holiday season.

From now through January 2, passengers can access 30 minutes of free Gogo during any of Delta’s more than 2,500 daily Wi-Fi equipped flights courtesy of eBay. In addition to the free half-hour session, passengers will also be able to shop on eBay throughout the duration of the flight.

“As people head out to visit their relatives on Delta for the holidays, we are delighted to be able to partner with eBay to offer 30 minutes of free Wi-Fi so they can shop for last minute gifts, connect with friends and family, or send holiday greetings from 30,000 feet,” said Ash ElDifrawi, Gogo’s chief marketing officer. “This is always a hectic time of year and we’re happy to be able to offer Delta passengers this holiday gift.”

The eBay free Wi-Fi promotion is one more way Gogo is working with partners to bring exciting shopping and entertainment options to travelers.

“With over 200 million listings on eBay, Delta fliers are sure to find exactly the right gift as they head home this holiday season,” said Richelle Parham, CMO of eBay North America. “Shoppers will also be able to access our Daily Deals while they fly, which offer deep discounts on hot products and free shipping.”

“This is the second time Gogo has partnered with eBay in creative ways to help promote their brand through Gogo’s new in-air multimedia platform,” added ElDifrawi. “We’re extremely excited to work with them on building unique opportunities to reach shoppers at 30,000 feet.”
