Air China, the flag carrier and one of the major Chinese airlines, has selected inflight entertainment and connectivity (IFEC) solutions from Panasonic Avionics (Panasonic) for its fleet of Airbus A350 aircraft.
Panasonic will provide its eX3 inflight entertainment for 10 Air China A350 aircraft. The first of these aircraft will be delivered in December 2017. This will allow Air China to offer a passenger experience that includes audio and video on demand, a content library that can offer up to 300 movies, 200 TV shows, games, music, a moving map, and more.
The A350 aircraft will also offer global connectivity services, so Air China passengers can keep in touch with others and stay up to date on current events everywhere these aircraft fly. Panasonic operates connectivity services in 210 countries, including China.
Hideo Nakano, CEO, Panasonic Avionics said: "Because the airline's route structure includes very long flights to all seven continents, it needed an IFEC solution that would help keep passengers entertained and offer new opportunities for it to generate revenue.
"With eX3, Air China will offer its passengers a memorable experience that lets them watch movies and television, listen to music or connect to their favorite social media applications like WeChat. The reliability, performance and flexibility of eX3 and our connectivity service makes it an ideal choice for these aircraft."
