Starlink sees Qatar Airways, airBaltic both online by end of year, architecture changes beyond

3 June 2024 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

Qatar Airways and Starlink hosted a media event of sorts at AIX 2024 where no media were included.

Both Qatar Airways and airBaltic expect to have their first few planes flying with Starlink internet before the end of the year. Expectations beyond that are even more interesting.

Dropping out of the IFE race

31 May 2024 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

Lufthansa Systems' BoardConnect enables passengers to enjoy a broad range of entertainment on their own smartphones and tablets.

Trade shows are a great opportunity for vendors to introduce new solutions and show off innovations. The absence of a product on display in a booth can tell an equally interesting – and completely opposite – story.
