Royal Jordanian Airlines selects ViaSat IFC solution across multiple fleets

Royal Jordanian Airlines, or RJ, and Viasat announced that the airline will officially make high-speed Wi-Fi a priority to enhance its future passenger experience by selecting Viasat’s in-flight connectivity, or IFC, solution across multiple fleets. In line with the airline’s strategic plan to increase and modernize its fleet, Royal Jordanian Airlines will equip more than 40 total aircraft with Viasat connectivity systems, including plans to factory-install the system on its new Embraer E2, Airbus A320, Airbus 321 and Boeing 787-9 fleets. The airline also plans to retrofit its Boeing 787-8 widebody aircraft with the advanced Wi-Fi solution. Viasat’s advanced, in-flight Wi-Fi will be available on various flight routes in the Middle East region and beyond, with the Embraer E2 fleet handling short-haul flights, the Airbus A320 family aircraft serving medium-haul routes, and the Boeing 787s continuing to fly Royal Jordanian Airlines’ long-haul routes.
