British Airways Now Allows Voice, Text and Internet Onboard

Our Comments

Ryanair and Emirates already introduced the service on some of their flights and it was only a matter of time before other airlines follow suit. Unsurprisingly, the top end bracket is the first targeted and it is very likely that other routes will be covered fairly soon. Website iKangaroo quotes the price of £250000 for each plane fitted with the necessary equipment.
