Technology provider AirFi has been selected by easyJet to support the airline in its ambitions to deliver an industry-leading, digital onboard experience.
Starting today (October 4), the airline will initially trial AirFi's revolutionary portable streaming solution, the AirFi box, which will allow passengers to connect to and browse the onboard shop menu while in flight, along with all passenger-facing aspects of the user experience onboard including flight and safety information, destination content, inflight magazine content and a selection of games, all free of charge.
Customers flying onboard any of the airline's Swiss fleet of 27 A320 family aircraft from Geneva and Basel will be able to use their own laptops, tablets, or Wi-Fi-enabled mobile phones to connect to a local Wi-Fi network created by the AirFi boxes onboard, to access the content.
