AEROF LOT EXEC READY FOR IFC'S BIG YEAR

摘要

Russia's national airline Aeroflot has close to 240 aircraft and one of the youngest fleets of any major airline, with an average age of just more than four years. Consequently, with a young fleet, the airline is looking to have a progressive In-Flight Connectivity (IFC) strategy to offer the next generation of services to passengers. In 2018, Aeroflot plans to install entertainment systems and internet access points on all aircraft of the A320 family. "This project is unique as the company that will be providing the whole range of services - including certification, equipment, and connectivity services - is Russian," Aeroflot Deputy Director General for IT Kirill Bogdanov tells Via Satellite. "We continue to provide our cabin crew with mobile devices that help automate and facilitate their work. We are implementing solutions that will allow us to carry out preventive aircraft maintenance."
