Aspen/Pitkin County Airport To Offer Free Wi-Fi
On December 3, the Aspen/Pitkin County airport will begin providing the public with free wireless internet service in the airport terminal building. For the past two years, the airport has had a paid wireless internet system operated under a commercial contract which expired in November. Under that system, users had to pay $9.95 per day for internet access.
"From the results of our recent community survey, as well as direct passenger feedback, we heard loud and clear our customers' desire for free Wi-Fi, and we're pleased to now provide this key customer amenity to our users", observed Assistant Aviation Director David Ulane.
The airport's Wi-Fi service, paid for by the Airport, will be operated and supported by AmeriSpot, which currently operates public Wi-Fi systems at numerous other commercial locations in the Roaring Fork Valley. "We are extremely pleased to partner with the Airport in providing free Wi-Fi to airport customers, especially as the airport gears up for the busy winter season" noted Alan Klein, President of AmeriSpot.
In partnership with AmeriSpot, the airport has installed all new wireless antennas and hardware, ensuring a strong signal throughout the terminal building. Under their contract with the Airport, AmeriSpot will also provide toll-free, 24 hour technical and customer support.
