In a move to secure plenty of good tidings ahead of Christmas, online search giant Google is to provide travelling Internet users with completely free Wi-Fi access at 47 airports across the United States and also on every flight operated by Virgin America during the busy holiday period.

Starting today and running through to January 15 of 2010, the free Wi-Fi offer is described by Google as a holiday gift for its faithful users that it hopes will enable them to be connected for a few extra minutes “or hours if you're delayed” in order to make stressful Christmas travel just that little bit easier to deal with.

“We're very happy to extend our Holiday Wi-Fi gift to the millions of people who will spend time in airports over the next few months,” enthused Marissa Mayer, vice president of Search Products and User Experience at California-based Google.

“We know that this is a very hectic travel season for people, and we hope that free Wi-Fi will make both travelling and connecting with friends and family a little bit easier,” she added.

Some of the major U.S. Destinations covered by Google's free Wi-Fi service include Las Vegas, San Jose, Boston, Baltimore, Burbank, Houston, Indianapolis, Seattle, Miami, Orlando, and St. Louis. It's worth noting that Burbank and Seattle airports will begin offering free Wi-Fi indefinitely once the January 15 closing date passes.
