Flexjet, Viasat Enter Ka-band Connectivity Partnership
June 17, 2021
Viasat and Flexjet have entered a partnership in which the satcom provider’s Ka-band in-flight connectivity (IFC) will be line fit on the fractional company’s super-midsize Embraer Praetor 600 fleet that operates transatlantic and domestic European routes. Flexjet’s Bombardier Global and Gulfstream G450 and G650 fleets also will be equipped with Viasat’s Ku-band IFC service, enabling a path to transition to its Ka-band system in the future as that network is further built out.
