SIA expands iPod connectivity
Passengers flying on Singapore Airlines’ new aircraft are being offered iPod and iPhone connectivity.
The carrier is making the service available to all travellers on Airbus A330-300s in Asia.
Previously the connections were limited to all-business class flights between Singapore and New York and Los Angeles.
The connection is part of a new multi-port panel placed next to each passenger’s individual in-flight entertainment screen.
Besides the iPod and iPhone connectivity, it contains a USB port, enabling people to listen to their own music, view their photos or read PDFs.
It also includes an audio-video input, which enables them to plug in their portable media players, to watch their videos via the in-flight entertainment system.
The A330, the first of which was delivered today, will be deployed on routes to Australian and Japanese cities from the end of March.
