Over the years, we have been involved in developing the airborne technology for inflight connectivity, securing telecoms regulatory approval and roaming agreements, and showing to the world at large that you can, after all, use your phone on a plane.

But those days are behind us. There is now a confirmed market for inflight connectivity and OnAir is the leading global service providers. Think of us as a specialist telecoms company.

From the passengers' perspective, OnAir is the name they see when they use their mobile or WiFi enable device during a flight.

And for airlines, we look after the services, making sure they are running as they should. We help them inform passengers about what is available and we provide a full range of support to help with installation and to fix any problems should they arise.

In fact, we are the only full-service global inflight connectivity provider. The most important words there are 'full-service' and 'global'.

By 'full-service', we mean we are the only provider operating voice, text message, mobile data - which includes using a smartphone for email and to access the Internet for example - and inflight WiFi.

Being global means that we provide a consistent worldwide service. First, SwiftBroadband, the satellite network we use, is global. And second, we have the most extensive network of regulatory approvals and roaming agreements.

Let's also stress that OnAir is independent and our services are already available either as linefit or retrofit on all major commercial aircraft, and the list of business jets we can equip is growing fast.

As the inflight connectivity market matures, we believe our global, flexible, multiplatform approach will provide what airlines need and their passengers want.
