South African low cost airline Mango has launched the first of several additional ancillary revenue-generation products in the form of the Internet product G-Connect. In partnership with service provider WirelessG, Mango’s new service makes on-line Internet communication available at pre-paid data rates through 3G, Wi-Fi and ADSL. Transactions are available through Mango’s website, www.flymango.com .
Mango CEO Nico Bezuidenhout says: “With the increasing importance of access to the Internet, the availability of affordable data rates is paramount. To launch the service, G-Connect brought to you by Mango will provide all guests travelling in December with a complimentary G-Connect voucher giving access to R 50 worth of data use.”
“The Mango G-Connect partnership makes especial sense in relation to both industries since both companies pride themselves on their endeavours to be affordable, offer value for money and maintain excellent customer service,” adds Carel van der Merwe, WirelessG CEO. “This partnership can bring a new landscape through innovation to both the broadband and airline industries”.
G-Connect offers 3G, Wi-Fi and ADSL access from a single on-line account. Data is available on a pre-paid basis and can now be purchased with instant delivery through Mango. No contracts are needed and users receive immediate access to the Internet. International Wi-Fi access is available at a flat rate and bandwidth purchased carries over 12 months from the last date of sign-in and the service offers 24/7 support.
