Californian telecoms provider Viasat has announced Delta Air Lines is to install in-flight connectivity technology on around 1,000 aircraft to give more passengers access to better wi-fi internet.
"We are honoured to continue expanding as the technology provider supporting Delta's mission to offer fast, free wi-fi as part of its evolved customer experience," said Don Buchman, Viasat's vice president and general manager, commercial aviation.
"The speed and scale at which we have reached this milestone together – now with more than 1,000 aircraft planned -- has been astounding and is a tribute to our collaboration," Buchman added.
