Honeywell, Inmarsat Move Forward on High-Speed In-Flight Connectivity
Successful tests of hardware and systems on B757 should prepare for tests on other aircraft types.
I've noticed that certain albums on the new QF 737 IFE - the on demand version will not play properly. One song will play then about 5 seconds from the end of the song it just locks in place, doesn't move to the next song. This happens when playing the album, putting the entire album over to a...
I thought I was doing something wrong. I searched the menu again and again. I gave up and read the inflight magazine :eek:
Only 12 movie options available on the beautiful new 16" screen I'm front of my J seat? Only one of these of slight interest to me.
Not just a problem on transcon flights...
I haven't flown QF Y in a while, but will be on QF98 at the end of the month. This is an A333.
Last time in QF Y I recall there was an AVOD/IFE box really restricting legroom and preventing me from putting anything under the seat in front.
Does anyone know which seats these boxes are under, or...
Flown SYD-DRW twice on a Sunday in 2 weeks and both times just the drop down sceens installed. I believe this is probably the longest domestic route with daily (or more) solely 738 aircraft operating. The aircraft planners should surely have as a priority that the longer routes get setback IFE...
Travelled back to Sydney yesterday on QF 4 from Honolulu with SWMBO in J on the good old 767...the flight was OK, obliviously no fully reclining seats but I knew this when I booked so no surprise there.
The issue yesterday was the state of the IFE system, which on a 767 is based on QF streaming...
Commencing mid-2015
- One additional row to economy
- Made possible by changes to galley and lavatory, and although the article I think miswords it, a slimline seat.
- Older 738s (ie the 38 without seatback IFE to get Q-Streaming) - presumably using the ipads from retired 767s

New Digital Content Experience in Qantas Domestic Lounges as Part of Entertainment Refresh
22 July 2014
Qantas, together with oOh! Media, has launched ‘QView’, a new interactive digital content experience in Qantas Clubs and Lounges across Australia.
This change is the first part of a...
I thought folks here might be interested to know that i flew MEL-CBR on the EJet on Wednesday and the wireless IFE was working. According to the cabin crew it was the first flight that it had been operational. I assume it will be through the rest of the fleet soon but my E190 flight back on...
Is the QF IFE the same on all aircraft? I was on a 747 & 330 recently and it was the same woeful selection on each and was wondering if I will have to put up with it on other aircraft as well?
On the B747 from DFW-BNE last week I was exploring the various features of the IFE and stumbled across "Communications" as a top level option. This took me to a screen offering "Webmail" access to a range of POP email services, presumably which would allow me to access my email box.
Following...
Seriously, we have had the Virgin Inflight Entertainment system for 2 odd years now, apps are developed at a ridiculous pace and those of us who have Windows based phones or tablets are still WAITING for access to this service!!! C'mon JB, along with dropping drinks from flexi fares you are...
I've had very mixed experiences using the Virgin IFE on my computer. The first time I tried it all I got for the whole flight was the "We're sorry..." screen which kept refreshing and failing. I alerted the FAs but I didn't think they'd be able to help and I was right. The next time I used it...
Hi all,
I've seen most series and the latest movies BUT....maybe I missed a few gems.....so I have 11 flights in 3 weeks ranging from 1hrs-15hrs.....I'm after recommendations
Probably look at "walking dead" series.
Please add movies or series you recommend:
AirAsia Berhad group has signed a $33.5 million inflight entertainment (IFE) contract with new Malaysian company Tune Box Avionics Berhad. The seven-year agreement is for the use of extended connectivity services on AirAsia aircraft. It is the first major deal for Tune Box with “a key [airline]...
I noticed that the new content for February on Qantas is very much improved over the traditional holiday period we just had, with some very new releases such as Last Vegas making an appearance as well as some big names like Gravity. It got me wondering how the airlines pay for such content, is...
