Description: In-flight connectivity has become a must-have with multiple heavy data users on board.

In-flight connectivity is a rapidly evolving field where connectivity is a must-have, not a nice-to-have. Once, passengers were hoping for the ability to text, and now they want offices in the sky. Reliability and speed have become commonplace, rather than a target. AIN brought together experts to discuss how the industry is meeting the demands of these changes and what to expect in the future. Viasat sponsored this roundtable.

News and developments about everything that goes into the cabin of an aircraft, from floor coverings to headliners, with a special emphasis on in-flight entertainment, communications and other electronics for passengers. If it is in the cabin of an aircraft, it’s covered here.
