New In-flight Connectivity Networks and Services for Business Aviation
9:30 – 10:30 am Eastern Time
As business aviation fleet operators continue to see a surge in demand for private travel, there has been an associated demand for robust premium in-flight internet service. In the past, cost and size, weight, and power constraints limited high-speed connectivity to large-cabin and long-range aircraft. However, that is changing, and as new options ranging from LEO to 5G and low-cost data plans increasingly become available, connectivity remains more relevant than ever for business aviation. Experts from in-flight connectivity service and data providers summarize the latest advancements during this interactive Connected Aviation Intelligence webcast panel discussion.
