AeroMobile has now tapped into the A380 era. By teaming up with Etihad Airways, AeroMobile fit the first Airbus A380 with their inflight mobile phone network services. The Etihad Airways 498-passenger A380-800 aircraft’s inaugural flight with AeroMobile services was from Abu Dhabi to London Heathrow earlier this month.
AeroMobile is a network operator that allows passengers to roam inflight by providing services that allow the safe use of mobile phones onboard. Etihad Airways currently has AeroMobile services installed on 50 aircrafts in their fleet. This includes B777-300ER, B777-200, A340-600, A340-500, A330-200 and A330-300.
AeroMobile’s in-flight mobile services have grown increasingly popular with passengers since their first flight in March 2008 and has roaming agreements with more than 285 operators in over 130 countries, including UAE operators Etisalat and Du and O2, EE, Three and Vodafone in the UK.
