Cingular Wireless, the largest wireless carrier in the U.S., and Concourse Communications Group announced that they have signed a WiFi Roaming Agreement which will enable Cingular WiFi subscribers to access the Internet over Concourse's airport networks. Currently these airports include: JFK, LaGuardia, Newark Liberty, Minneapolis-St Paul, Detroit, Nashville, Ottawa International and later this year Chicago's O'Hare and Midway.

"This agreement is truly a win-win-win," said Joe Beatty, President of Concourse Communications. "We benefit from the increased volume of users, Cingular benefits from adding these major airports to its WiFi footprint, and most importantly, Cingular subscribers win by being able to communicate more conveniently." This represents the ninth such Roaming Agreement Concourse has announced. By actively seeking roaming agreements, Concourse welcomes the subscribers of many wireless carriers and thereby fulfills its mission of being a neutral-host operator of public WiFi networks at key transportation hubs.
