Some travelers say they fail to see the risk that Wi-Fi on airplanes could be used to trigger a bomb.
“I don’t think the Wi-Fi to trigger a bomb is something to worry about,” said Jon Safran, who lives in Atlanta and travels at least once a week. “I’m just not quite sure it’s technically feasible to do all that, get it through security and trigger it. And I guess you’d have to be on the plane yourself dialing it in.
“I think one or two incidents shouldn’t be a reason to fundamentally change our lives,” Safran said. He said he thought a ban of Wi-Fi would be an overreaction.
Scott LaGrand, who lives in Columbus, Ohio, and recently passed through was at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, said he travels often for work and has been on flights with in-flight wi-fi Wi-Fi but also hasn’t used it. before.
“If there’s proof that those sorts of things could happen, then I would support not having Wi-Fi available,” said LaGrand, who is also a former Atlanta Knights hockey player. “Because it’s not something that most travelers have become accustomed to, I don’t think we would be missing it.”
