In a time as digitally focused as now, Internet access is widely acknowledged as one of life's more important details. In fact, sometimes we forget how connected we usually are until we find ourselves completely lost without Google.

Smart travel brands, from airlines to hotels, have already increased their value to guests by simply adding complimentary or incredibly convenient Wifi access... But we're seeing more and more creative ways the industry is empathizing with our Internet addiction.
