SilkAir, the regional wing of Singapore Airlines, had begun a trial of wireless inflight entertainment (IFE) on one of its Airbus A320 aircraft.
During the trial, passengers will be able to stream multimedia content such as movies, TV programmes and music directly onto their personal devices while onboard their flight.
Passengers can access this inflight entertainment content through their laptops, Apple iPhone, iPad, iPod or Android tablets and smartphones.
Access to the inflight content will complement SilkAir’s existing overhead entertainment system and will be complimentary.
Silk Air hopes the trial will lead to the permanent installation of the system across its aircraft fleet in 2014.
