The service is available on all aircraft with the exception of seven Boeing 737-800 NGs, on which Wi-fi is not enabled. SIA runs a total of 136 aircraft, as of May 2023. 

To access the free inflight Wi-Fi service from July 1, customers will need to enter their KrisFlyer membership details when they book their flights or at check-in. 

According to SIA, inflight internet speed may vary depending on the number of concurrent users and activities customers run on their devices. Weather conditions, satellite coverage, and territorial regulations also may affect onboard connectivity.
