MEXICO CITY, Mexico – Aeromexico, Mexico’s global airline, in partnership with Panasonic Avionics, today announced it has added live television to its Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner aircrafts. This new service will initially offer two channels – Sport 24 for live sporting action from around the world, and CNN International. The service will be available to passengers from both the seatback inflight entertainment and communications system and on their own personal electronic devices.
Sport 24, owned and operated by IMG, offers live coverage of the world’s most popular sporting events. The channel shows live action from the Rio 2016 Olympics Games, Premier League, NFL, UEFA Champions League, NBA, Tennis Grand Slams, Bundesliga, Formula 1, Golf Majors, MotoGP, and the Ryder Cup.
Antonio Fernandez, Aeromexico’s VP Product Design and Service Standards said, “At Aeromexico, we are always looking for new ways to keep our passengers happy and entertained, and there’s nothing quite like live television. Our clients will now be able to stay current on world events and also watch their favorite athletes and teams compete in real time at 35,000 feet”.
Aeromexico will begin rolling out the service in August in four of its nine Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, the most modern aircraft in the world, that operates to Tijuana within Mexico and to international destinations such as Buenos Aires, London, Los Angeles, Madrid, New York, Paris, Shanghai, Santiago and Tokyo.
David Bruner, Vice President of Global Communications Services, Panasonic Avionics Corporation said, “Live Television has become extremely important to both airlines and their passengers. After all, news and sports never stop. We’re continuing to evolve our eXTV service, bringing a unique experience to passengers all over the world. We are both proud and honored to help Aeromexico add this exciting service to their international fleet of Boeing 787-8.”
