Mobile services elevated into the skies
SkyFive partners with Mobile Operators to extend their cellular services and networks into the sky. Subscribers automatically connect in the aircraft cabin without additional authentication and payment steps, and enjoy a true broadband Internet experience. Mobile Operators can fully leverage their existing service and network infrastructure, by working side by side with SkyFive as the global broadband inflight connectivity specialist.
Key benefits for Mobile Operators
Brand promotion
Drives brand value and loyalty by connecting subscribers always and everywhere, including the aircraft cabin.
New subscribers
Attracts new high-value business customers, and allows capturing roamers before even reaching the country
Upsell opportunities
Engagement in the cabin can be extended with premium content, partner offerings, advertisements, and online payment services
Simplicity
The partnership between the Mobile Operator and SkyFive assures shortest time to market and lowest cost of operations, based on an optimized work split.
Low service investment
Inflight services are provided to subscribers like on the ground, by fully leveraging existing marketing, authentication, billing, and care capabilities.
Low network investment
Due to cell sizes of up to 150 km, only a few A2G base stations on existing towers are required to cover the airspace over an entire country.
