Boingo's growing European network now includes 21 European countries totaling nearly 7,400 hotspots under contract. Boingo gives business travelers the best choice of Wi-Fi hotspots by combining the locations of 94 leading Wi-Fi operators into one worldwide network, and allowing users to securely roam onto any of these locations with a single subscription using Boingo's free Wi-Fi client software.
