Delta flight disrupted by rogue onboard Wi‑Fi network prompts safety review
A Delta Air Lines flight from Las Vegas to Atlanta was disrupted after an unauthorized onboard Wi‑Fi network appeared, prompting the crew to briefly disable the plane’s internet service. Delta said none of its systems or aircraft were hacked and that Wi‑Fi was restored after about 30 minutes as federal authorities investigate. The incident, which social media linked to a rogue network amid cybersecurity concerns, underscores passengers’ need to connect only to the airline’s official network; regulators are involved and no emergency occurred.
