LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT | LOS ANGELES, CA

Named the “Most Innovative Airport (large hub)” by the American Association of Airport Executives, Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is one of the busiest airports in America.

CHALLENGE

Passengers rely on mobile devices for everything from flight check-ins and entertainment to work-related communications.

LAX desired:

BOINGO SOLUTIONS
