SES has partnered with Viva Airlines to launch multi-orbit satellite inflight connectivity on Viva's Airbus fleet, including 60 A320s and 40 A321s, in a multi-year rollout. Viva will be the first airline in Mexico to use SES's new electronically steered array (ESA) antenna. This initiative aims to provide reliable, fast internet access for passengers during flights.
The expansion of multi-orbit satellite connectivity to commercial airlines signifies a growing demand for consistent, high-bandwidth internet access during travel. This partnership positions Viva Airlines as an early adopter of advanced inflight connectivity in Mexico, potentially setting a competitive benchmark for regional carriers. For content providers and streaming services, this means a larger addressable audience with reliable access to services while airborne. Watch for adoption rates of inflight internet on Viva flights and how quickly competitors in the Americas respond with similar upgrades.
