Choose between mobile phone connectivity and Wi-Fi onboard Qatar´s A350 XWB.

Inflight connectivity is drastically changing the way of traveling by plane.

OnAir's full inflight connectivity suite, including Mobile OnAir and Internet OnAir, is being installed as line fit on Qatar Airways' A350s.

Passengers can now choose between mobile phone connectivity and Wi-Fi, depending on their preference.

“OnAir’s innovation has ensured that the internal technology matches the ground-breaking work that has gone into the construction of the A350,” said Ian Dawkins, CEO of OnAir.

“We are helping Qatar Airways give its passengers the most up-to-date solutions which fall in line with passengers’ expectations of a 5-Star Airline.”

And starting on Qatar´s A350s for next year 2016, the inflight connectivity services will be upgraded to GX Aviation.

Inmarsat’s ground-breaking global Ka-band network will provide up to 50Mbs to the aircraft. Importantly, the passenger experience will be consistent across the globe.
