iPhone 15 in flight wifi

I was on a SWA flight today with a new iPhone 15 and had this same issue. Go to Settings>General>VPN & Device Management. Turn off VPN. Doing this worked for me.

@Shree_p, did you actually read the issue? They’re on a plane and can’t do any of that.

I had the same problem, and there may be a simpler fix, which I will test on the way home. I noticed AFTER I landed, and I turned off airplane mode so I had cell reception, that I could sign into the Delta WiFi.

(On my laptop I had no trouble logging into the wifi in flight.)

So you may want to try logging into the Delta WiFi on the runway, before you turn on airplane mode. For some reason, on my iPhone 15 Pro it seems to need a connection from another source for the sign-in.

This seems to have something to do with it. My VPN wasn't on, as I wasn't connected, but toggling it allowed me to get a little further in the process.

Still currently stuck and not connected with my phone though.

Hey gaelle129,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We see you're experiencing an issue with connecting to a Wi-Fi network on your iPhone. Go through the applicable steps below or here: If your iPhone or iPad won't connect to a Wi-Fi network.

1. Make sure that your router is on and that you're within range

If you're too far from your Wi-Fi router, you can't get a signal, so make sure that you're within range.

2. Make sure that Wi-Fi is on and that you can see your network

Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and make sure that Wi-Fi is on. Tap the name of your Wi-Fi network to join. A blue checkmark beside a network name means that you're connected.

If you see Auto Join disabled under Settings > Wi-Fi > [Your Network], tap the More Info button and then tap Auto-Join.

3. If asked, enter your Wi-Fi password

If asked, enter the password for your Wi-Fi network. Get help if you don't know your password.

Even if you enter the correct password, you might see an "unable to join the network" message or an "incorrect password" message. Restart all of your devices, then try to enter your password again.

4. Check for issues with your Wi-Fi network

If iOS or iPadOS detects an issue with your Wi-Fi connection, you might see a Wi-Fi recommendation under the name of the Wi-Fi network that you're connected to. For example, you might see the alert "No Internet Connection." To get more information, tap the Wi-Fi network.

5. Check your cables and connections

If you still can't connect to your network or get online, make sure that your router is connected to the modem and turned on.

6. Restart

Restart your iOS or iPadOS device.

Restart your router and cable or DSL modem by unplugging the device and then plugging it back in.

After you restart each device, see if you fixed the issue.

7. Reset your network settings

If you're using iOS or iPadOS 15 or later, tap Settings > General > Transfer or Reset [Device] > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

If you're using iOS or iPadOS 14 or earlier, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, and VPN and APN settings that you've used before.

If the information above doesn't help, review the section labeled "Get more help" in the article.

Hope this helps. Take care.

I cannot connect to the WiFi with my iPhone 15 to any flight in Delta. Please help

Same problem here on iPhone 15 Pro with Delta Airlines and Air France on multiple flights these couple of weeks

Hello~ Have you force restarted your iPhone? Do you have the airline in question current app? Do others around you connect to WiFi?
