The new service is offered with the support of Mastercard
Lufthansa is now also offering unlimited free chatting on its intercontinental flights.
Passengers can send and receive any number of messages from their smartphone or tablet via the familiar apps, regardless of their travel class during the flight, including photos.
Many passengers would like this free service to be introduced because they want to stay in touch with family and friends via text messages even on long flights.
The new free service is offered with the support of Mastercard. To use it, passengers must log in to FlyNet with a Miles & More service card number or an email address registered with Lufthansa Group Travel ID.
They can also sign up or register during their flight.
