Best US and International Airport WiFi

In my travels around the Asian region I have found, despite reports to the contrary, free access to be all but non-existant. It wasn't always this way but it seems so many terminals try to squeeze revenue from all but the most established services. There are some highlights, including the Virgin Atlantic lounge in Hong Kong, Singapore Airlines lounge in Seoul, and EVA's lounge in Taipei, but these are services for frequent traveller or business class passengers only. Luckily TravelPost and Jaunted have a number of access point lists to help us during the times we don't have the luxury of using such facilities.

TravelPost.com's guide to airport wireless Internet access for major international airports. Though not all are free, it's a decent rundown of what is available.

From large European hubs like London Heathrow and Paris Charles de Gaulle to exotic global destinations like Dubai International and Quito - Mariscal Sucre Airport, we provide the most complete listing of wireless access options, airport wifi providers, coverage areas and pricing.

Jaunted writes about the best available wifi in US airports:

... we find that an airport with reliable, free WiFi gets us planning our trip around such signal-strong airports.

But there's hope. Some large US airports are leading the way, while the real innovation is going on at the country's small airfields. Maybe it's due to less red tape, or maybe they just want to get noticed, but regional and less-used airports usually have the best WiFi.

They have an up-to-date US Airport WiFi Map as well.

Also the definitive guide to US airport wireless connections and free airport wifi and the somewhat related Free WiFi in Bangkok.
