Satellites for Airline Passenger Connectivity

All airlines try to ensure the comfort of their passengers as much as possible while they are aboard their planes. Keeping passengers happy helps an airline’s message, to say nothing of the fact that passengers might remember their travel experience fondly and choose the same airline to travel with in the future. One of the best ways that passenger comfort can be maintained is to provide passengers with a means of connecting to the internet while they are aboard. Passengers can use the internet for entertainment, for work, or any other purpose while they are aboard their flight. Of course, passengers may have to contend with slow internet speeds as a result of having many people dividing up a limited amount of bandwidth. Still, most people use the internet aboard flights for less data-intensive like checking email. Add this to the fact that relatively few passengers are likely to be using it at one time, likely because they are occupied with other tasks or entertainments. In short, internet access on planes can be made useable by passengers, giving airlines an incentive to add it to the aircraft they operate.
