Five minutes of free Wi-Fi per flight, then paid data or messaging 'Chat' packages, and only on aircraft already fitted with the connectivity hardware. These terms are Air Arabia's fleet-wide policy; the Airbus A321 follows them.

Can you make video calls on Air Arabia's Airbus A321?

Yes on the Airbus A321s already converted to the fast system, where latency is close to home broadband. On the ones still running the older high-orbit system, no. Which one you get depends on the individual aircraft.
