Free TikTok has arrived on flights operated by American Airlines

Passengers will be able to use the app for up to 30 minutes for free, which gives them time to watch at least ten of the new, longer TikToks.

The move to make TikTok available to travelers comes as airlines are trying to reignite the sector which has been hit hard by COVID.

Customers will be able to log into their TikTok accounts by enabling airplane mode, connecting to the “AA-Inflight” signal, and selecting the TikTok ad for the free access in the Wi-Fi portal. For those who do not have an account on the platform, American Airlines is also allowing travelers to download the app inflight, free of charge.

“Faster Wi-Fi allows us to deliver diverse inflight entertainment options and invest in innovative partnerships with platforms like TikTok,”
AA Managing Director of Premium Customer Experience and Onboard Products Clarissa Sebastian said in the statement.

“Customers play the lead role in helping us better understand what content they want during their inflight experience and TikTok is one of the platforms they love on the ground.”

At this time, it’s unknown whether TikTok will remain a permanent inflight option, as the addition is “promotional” in nature.
