Boingo Wireless, Inc. (NASDAQ: WIFI), the Wi-Fi industry’s leading
provider of software and services worldwide, today announced network
access agreements with five operators, providing new hotspots in Norway,
Denmark, the United Kingdom, the Balkans and Malta. The new agreements
add more than 1,500 new locations to Boingo’s global network of more
than 400,000 hotspots.
In the Nordic region, Boingo expanded its network by more than 1,000
hotspots through agreements with two leading operators, TDC and the
Telenor Group. Boingo’s agreement with TDC, the leading Danish provider
of telecommunications solutions, gives customers access to 800 hotspots
at hotels, coffee shops and train stations across the country. The
agreement with Norway’s Telenor Group, one of the world’s major mobile
operators, includes Wi-Fi Internet access to an additional 200 hotspots
at popular hotels and other locations in the region.
Boingo is further enhancing its network of available hotspots in the
United Kingdom through an agreement with Airangel, the U.K.’s leading
provider of guest Internet access solutions. Boingo customers can now
access Wi-Fi via Airangel’s 130 hotel, retail and sporting venues.
Airangel hotel partners include Radisson Blu, Holiday Inn and De Vere,
with more than 16,000 rooms covered in the region.
Boingo adds coverage in the Balkans via leading Macedonian operator Sun
Wireless. The agreement provides access to Sun Wireless’ expanding
network of more than 350 hotspots in 10 cities throughout the country,
including widespread coverage in Macedonia’s capital city of Skopje, the
country’s two main airports, and a host of hotels and restaurants
nationwide.
The company is also introducing coverage in Malta, the popular
international vacation destination. Via an agreement with Sky Telecom,
Boingo users will have access to more than 50 hotspot locations at
hotels and coffee shops throughout the island nation.
“Roaming charges and new data plan limits can make connecting while
traveling internationally a costly proposition,” said Bjorn Thorngren,
director of EMEA for Boingo Wireless. “Our new agreements with these
leading operators give our users additional flexibility as they travel
the globe, and allow our platform service partners to offer their
subscribers access to a rapidly expanding Wi-Fi network in diverse
business and tourist hubs worldwide.”
