Passengers on Mango operated flights can now surf the internet using G-Connect, the Internet service provider Wireless G's in-flight WiFi, when travelling between South Africa's major centres. The service allows full on-board Internet connectivity, including web browsing, sending and receiving of e-mails as well as the use of all social networks. An air-to-land SMS service is also available, managed through a certain web service.
