🚀 Soaring Expectations: Passengers Envision a Hyper-Connected Future for Air Travel AD In-flight connectivity is no longer a luxury—it's an expectation. The 2024 Viasat Passenger Experience Survey reveals that 75% of passengers are more likely to rebook with an airline offering high-quality Wi-Fi. It's clear: travelers want low-cost, high-speed, and seamless connectivity that personalizes and enhances their journey. I'm thrilled to have had the opportunity to contribute to this groundbreaking report, where I discussed how space innovation can inspire advancements in aviation. From streaming their favorite shows to staying productive in the air, passengers demand connectivity that mirrors life on the ground. Airlines that embrace these expectations and invest in reliable satellite-powered solutions will foster loyalty and stay ahead in a competitive market.

👏 Congrats to Lufthansa Group for the completion of the Free Route project, also contributed by Air France. The new Lido Flight software was upgraded with Free Route flight planning capabilities enabling the optimization of the trajectory planning within the Free Route airspace.     ✅ This implementation project contributes to the #deployment of the #SESAR Deployment Programme Family 3.2.2 “Enhanced FRA Operations” by airspace users.    🌳⛽ ⏱ This project is part of a bundle of projects, which should generate in combination with two other submitted projects savings in CO2, fuel and flight time.     🇪🇺 The Free Route concept, which is supported by this implementation project is a corner stone of possible improvements in the #EU airspace.    🛫 In coordination with the establishment of Free Route airspaces by the European Air Navigation Service Providers this project is increasing the flight efficiency by offering additional flight planning options (with possibly shorter distance) compared to the ARN (Air Traffic Services Route Network) currently in place, thus shorter flight times can be expected.     🎤 Lufthansa Group shares:   "Free Route Airspace allows for the optimization of flight routes on the most efficient trajectories. If the No.1 route is congested or has weather interferences, there are alternative options for a second efficient route. A solution that helps airlines to save fuel, costs and time."     #SESARdelivers #AsOne #aviation #CP1    CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency    European Commission
