Free Airport WiFi Passwords For Every Airport Around The World On A Single Map

Ah, the conundrum of airport wifi passwords!

Being stuck at an airport for hours on end is something travellers are familiar with. Waiting to board, a delayed flight, or a layover is an unpreventable occurrence when travelling. And it can be an infuriating waste of time – especially if you can’t get access to the airport wifi!

Well, we have news for you! We have found a really great tool for teachers travelling, whether it’s for vacation or to teach English abroad. An interactive map that provides users with free airport wifi passwords for every airport around the world! That’s right – free airport wifi passwords! Genius!

Ralph Waldo Emerson apparently once said that life is a journey, not a destination. Of course, being a traveller means you are likely to spend a lot of your time travelling rather than arriving, but this doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s all enjoyable! It can be difficult to appreciate the journey when you are squashed on a bus next to a chicken for five hours (#truestory) or sat waiting around for a delayed train in the early hours of the morning. 

At least airports usually offer a certain amount of entertainment in-between flights. You can grab a bite to eat, do some shopping in the duty-free, find a quiet spot to read. These days, many airports go the extra mile to make sure your visit is as pleasant as possible – by offering free airport wifi. 

But connecting to it can be a nightmare. Some require a local SIM card, others a local phone number, and most a network password. Luckily, we’ve got just the solution for you.
