The Cloud COO Bobby Sarin said travel locations have some of the highest usage levels from across the company's entire hotspot estate with business travellers generally being the most experienced wi-fi users.
Increasingly they are using wi-fi to make voice calls or watch video clips, and not just to access emails, he added.
