Etisalat, Miral sign deal to offer public wifi on Yas Island

ABU DHABI, April 10, 2017

Etisalat has entered into a strategic agreement with Miral, the entity responsible for the development and promotion of Yas Island in Abu Dhabi as a destination for leisure, business and entertainment, to provide visitors with public wifi.

The service will be available to both UAE residents and tourists with international mobile numbers, and accessed through the ‘UAE WiFi by Etisalat’ network.

The partnership aligns with the country's ‘smart’ vision which focuses on delivering wifi coverage across all UAE regions, including Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Northern Emirates. Integrating the most advanced technologies, residents and visitors can look forward to seamless and secure internet access once the service launches.

The strategic project will be rolled out across Yas Island, connecting residents and visitors at all of the island’s various leisure and entertainment assets.

Jamal Alnuaimi, general manager, Etisalat Abu Dhabi, said: “Today the country has the most connected networks in the region due to the long term vision of our leadership. Etisalat has continuously invested in building a superior telecom network to enable connectivity for all residents. We are proud to be associated with this prestigious project that will set a path to enable our network on the entire Yas Island which is one of the best world class destinations today.

“This strategic partnership with Etisalat comes in line with our continuous efforts to develop the infrastructure of Yas Island to make it a world-class travel and tourism destination,” said Mohamed Abdalla Al Zaabi, CEO of Miral.

“We continually look at enhancing our visitors experience through providing an inclusive infrastructure of services, and adding a public wifi across Yas Island is another remarkable milestone in that journey.”

Visitors to Yas Island will enjoy access to high-speed internet connection, enabling them to text, browse, chat and stream videos easily without any advertisements or pop-ups. -TradeArabia News Service
