Speed and coverage
DAY WiFi delivers adequate speeds on the Fly DAY Public network. DAY WiFi provides adequate speeds for browsing and email; streaming and video calls may buffer during peak hours when the most passengers are connected simultaneously. Coverage extends throughout the terminal areas and concourses — you generally do not need to reconnect as you move through the airport.
Charging stations
Charging is built directly into gate-hold seating in both Concourse A and Concourse B (over half of the airport's 1,100+ newly installed seats have outlets); there are no separate wall-mounted charging towers, so grab a powered seat near your gate when you arrive. Most major US airports — including DAY — provide a mix of USB-A, USB-C, and standard 120 V outlets at gate seating. Bring your own cable; cables are not supplied at charging kiosks.
Pro Tip
The free WiFi also covers the outdoor Cell Phone Lot, so drivers waiting to pick up arriving passengers can track flight status online without burning cell data while they wait.
