The Indian government appears to be finally warming to the idea of in-flight Wi-Fi.

Several years after other airlines started rolling out the service, India’s Ministry of Civil Aviation is reported to have approached the country’s Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to discuss in-flight Wi-Fi.

The Economic Times cited an unnamed “senior official” from the ministry as saying that a formal announcement is expected soon.

“The DoT has already said the proposal is possible to implement,” the official told the newspaper.

Both Vistara and SpiceJet have expressed an interest in providing in-flight Wi-Fi services. At present, only international airlines like Emirates offer in-flight Wi-Fi in India.
