AeroMobile^TM—Airborne Mobile Connectivity

Billions of people use mobile phone technology to communicate with one another, and every day more than one million people fly in commercial airliners. AeroMobile provides a safe, cost-effective way to allow passengers to use their mobile phones and PDAs while in flight—just as they would on the ground.

Bringing passenger mobile phone services safely and responsibly into the aircraft cabin demands a specific blend of technical and commercial capabilities. AeroMobile's key strengths include expertise in aircraft safety, systems and operations, mobile telecommunications systems/services, cellular roaming/regulatory affairs, and globally competitive pricing.

AeroMobile is the only operator with the capability to provide cellular voice and text messaging using the existing “classic” Inmarsat satellite communications systems installed in over 2,000 commercial airliners. AeroMobile can also support data services such as e-mail and Internet browsing over GPRS and Wi-Fi/Live IP when the aircraft has higher bandwidth communications systems such as Inmarsat's Swift64, SwiftBroadband, or Ku-band satellite services. AeroMobile's technology can be easily and progressively enhanced with greater capacity and capability as new satellite systems come on stream.
