Kingfisher to Offer Inflight Internet Access
Kingfisher Airlines has selected OnAir’s services to offer passengers a full range of passenger communication services. Starting in 2008, Kingfisher Airlines’ long-haul passengers will be able to use Webmail OnAir and Webchat OnAir, followed in 2009 by Internet and Mobile OnAir to access the Internet during flights, as well as send and receive emails and make and receive phone calls.
OnAir’s services will initially be installed on five new Airbus A330s and five new Airbus A340s, and plans to install the system across its entire long-range fleet. Kingfisher Airlines will use its A330s on routes to Europe and Asia, while the A340s will service longer nonstop flights, such as to the USA.
