If you happen to extensively travel abroad and are an AT&T customer, then you’re probably going to be excited at this tidbit of news. Boingo and AT&T have announced that it has gone into a special global roaming agreement with one another, allowing AT&T customers to access wireless hotspots at locations worldwide for free. It’s pretty straightforward too: all customers need to do is simply use the AT&T WiFi International App in order to use Boingo’s global network. Also part of the agreement, Boingo customers who happen to travel into in the United States will also be able to access AT&T WiFi hotspots throughout the US.<\/p>\n

One small thing to note is in order to use AT&T’s WiFi International App, AT&T customers will need to ensure that they already have the appropriate 300MB or 800MB AT&T Data Global Add-On package as part of their mobile plan. Once that’s done, customers will be able to access up to a gig of Boingo service. Sweet.<\/p>\n

More details can be found once you hit the break and check out the presser.<\/p>\n
