Air Astana boosts connectivity offering

Air Astana has completed the installation of Rockwell Collins cabin systems, which support Inmarsat’s GX Aviation in-flight connectivity (IFC) service, across its fleet of three Boeing 767 aircraft.

The IFC service is available to passengers in both business and economy class, who can choose from three connectivity packages. The Light option offers 15MB, the Regular option 50MB, and the Super option 100MB. All services are estimated to operate at an average speed of 2 to 5Mbps.

In September 2017, Air Astana became the first airline in the world to offer Inmarsat’s GX Aviation onboard a widebody aircraft when the installation on its first Boeing 767 was completed.
