Key Takeaways:

  • Honeywell's JetWave system delivers fast, reliable, and high-quality in-flight Wi-Fi, enabling seamless activities like 1080p video streaming and video calls, comparable to an office experience.
  • The system integrates advanced Ka-band Satcom hardware with Honeywell's GoDirect software and services, connecting to Inmarsat’s Jet ConneX for comprehensive connectivity.
  • A key feature is the ability to "shape" or manage bandwidth usage through a configurable portal, allowing operators to optimize data allocation and control potentially high in-flight Wi-Fi costs.

At FL370 over southern Utah, Honeywell’s Dassault Falcon 7X is loaded with six media representatives from NBAA-BACE plus five executives from Honeywell as we “test drive” Honeywell’s JetWave in-flight Wi-Fi system. It is an incredible experience to have fully-functional internet connectivity while flying along at 490 miles per hour.
