Delta is shifting to Viasat which has a technically superior service over gogo, with the end goal being free wifi for everyone on all flights. Until the majority of their planes are equipped with viasat they will charge $5 per flight for access, to avoid an inconsistent experience for all Delta passengers. Delta has no obligation to TMobile users.
Nobody has broken a deal, as TMobile users, we still get free wifi on all gogo equipped flights.
That's a $#@! answer. As Delta and American have almost completed their phase out of Gogo, there are a rounding error to zero percent of planes where TMobile gets you free wifi. It's misleading to advertise it as a perk at this point without including the dominant inflight wifi provider, Viasat.
