Following an introductory launch earlier in the year, Singapore Airlines will make inflight connectivity available on 14 of its aircraft, including all five Airbus A340-500s deployed on the world’s longest non-stop flights, as well as on Airbus A380-800s. It will also be available on the airline’s Boeing B777-300ERs.

   Inmarsat Vice President of Aviation David Coiley called Singapore Airlines one of the most prominent architects of the modern in-flight experience.

   “The fact that this industry leader selected SwiftBroadband is a great testament to what can be achieved, now, with this much-trusted platform,” Coiley said in a statement. “Among the key strengths of SwiftBroadband are the consistency and reliability of the service, and its ubiquity, enabling passengers on SwiftBroadband-enabled aircraft to get connected wherever they are in the world. It sounds obvious to say, but airlines want to provide the same level of service wherever they are flying. Secondly, SwiftBroadband provides the optimum balance between quality of the passenger experience, and the best investment case for the airline.”
