SURF THE NET, CHECK E-MAIL ON SIA FLIGHTS
Travelers on Singapore Airlines (SIA) will soon be able to stay connected, even at cruising altitude of about 10,000m.The airline yesterday launched its US$50 million in-flight connectivity program, which allows passengers to surf the Internet as well as send and receive e-mail and text messages.
The program will be progressively rolled out over the next two years across SIA's long-haul aircraft, including the Airbus A380-800 and Boeing 777- 300ER.
"As our customers' preferences towards entertainment and connectivity options change over time, so must we," said SIA senior vice-president for product and services Tan Pee Teck.
As part of a soft launch, SIA has been offering this service since April on 14 routes, including the Singapore-Newark and Singapore-Los Angeles connections.
