The Viasat inflight Wi-Fi service offers passengers an at-home or office experience in the sky and keeps flight crews connected.

The new AirFi LEO product will enable basic web services such as online payments, real-time bookings and social media usage at 35,000 feet.

The two parties will be able to combine their services to offer broadband inflight connectivity paired with high-value solutions and services to airlines. 

Following the launch of a new app, AirlineCheckins Plus customers can now access inflight Wi-Fi onboard 36 airlines thanks to a partnership with iPass.

The survey, conducted by Populus on behalf of Inmarsat, found that 91% of 18-30 year olds and 90% of business travellers would use in-flight Wi-Fi.

Almost four in 10 commercial aircraft globally will be equipped with inflight Wi-Fi by the end of 2018, according to Valour Consultancy.
