Holiday cheer: Google offering free Wi-Fi at BWI

Starting Monday, Nov. 16, Google will be offering free Wi-Fi at BWI Airport and 46 other airports across the country.

The free Wi-Fi program will last until Jan. 15, 2010, and is cast as a holiday promotion. Google is also giving passengers on Virgin America flights free Wi-Fi, as part of a promotion that was announced earlier.

You can get more details on the Google promo at FreeHolidayWiFi.com.

I'm gonna bet that Google will continue with these Wi-Fi promotions as they push to grow their mobile search business

Do want. Especially as somebody traveling shortly after the holidays. It'll be nice to not get gouged for at least one comfort beyond the checkpoint.
