新德里:无线网络连接在飞行中在印度对旅行者来说仍是一个白日梦——无论是国内或国际。
印度航空公司说提供的服务对他们来说太贵了,没有一个有Internet-on-board。
除了这一点,并不是所有的wi - fi的大型国际航空公司机上能够提供在印度领空由于严格的规则有一个本地服务器。
例如,新加坡航空公司(SIA)对其wi - fi波音公司777年代,空中客车公司- 380。而b - 777年代互联网在印度领空,它必须关闭- 380 s。“新航提供机上连接A380和b - 777 - 300 - er通过SITAONAIR和松下分别服务提供商。目前SITAONAIR能够提供机上连接外部的对我们的a - 380印度领空,在孟买和新德里部门运营,”新加坡航空发言人说。
新航的互联网服务提供商,这是印度“监管约束”的结果,因为当地规则要求“所有卫星运营商在印度建立一个通信卫星网关”。
“国际海事卫星,我们的卫星连接伙伴从事建筑的门户,“塞西莉亚Odello SITAONAIR告诉钢铁洪流。
迪拜大型航母酋长国也面临同样的问题。”,以满足当前的监管要求,阿联酋航空公司不让互联网接入我们的航班在印度领空。监管框架很复杂但发展在未来,我们相信,这将允许我们的客户解决wi - fi连接印度很快,”帕特里克Brannelly说,阿联酋航空部门副总裁(用户体验)。
业内人士表示,印度对这种情况由于担心数据安全侵权。
目前,阿联酋航空公司提供wi - fi连接在75%的舰队(175飞机)——所有的空客a380,以及大多数架波音777飞机。“综合改造项目也正在安装wi - fi功能在我们的舰队。乘客可以访问10 mbs的免费数据,发送电子邮件,博客,微博,发布在Facebook上,或浏览互联网。此外,象征性的1美元费用征收在接下来的500 mb,”Brannelly说。
其他国际航空公司等德国汉莎航空公司和卡塔尔航空公司谁为故事提供车载wi - fi未予置评。
与此同时,印度航空公司是在一旁看着。两大-印度航空公司和长期经营的飞机飞往遥远的北美和澳大利亚这样的地方——在他们的飞机没有wi - fi。AI玩弄这个想法几年前,但一位高级官员表示:“对我们来说是太贵了。”Jet did not comment.
New Delhi: Getting Wi-Fi<\/a> connectivity while flying in India remains a pipe dream for travellers - whether domestic or international.<\/p> Indian carriers say offering the service is too expensive for them and none of them have Internet-on-board.<\/p> Apart from this, not all the big international airlines which have Wi-Fi on board are able to provide it in Indian airspace due to stringent rules of having a local server.<\/p> For instance, Singapore Airlines<\/a> (SIA) has Wi-Fi on its Boeing<\/a> 777s and the Airbus<\/a> A-380s. While the B-777s have Internet in Indian airspace, it has to be switched off in its A-380s. \"SIA offers inflight connectivity on A380 and B-777-300ER through SITAONAIR and Panasonic<\/a> service providers, respectively. Currently SITAONAIR is able to provide inflight connectivity outside of the Indian airspace on our A-380, which operates on the Mumbai and New Delhi sectors,\" said a SIA spokesperson.<\/p> SIA's internet service provider this is the result of Indian \"regulatory constraints\" as local rules require \"all satellite operators to establish a communication satellite gateway in India\".<\/p> \"Inmarsat, our satellite connectivity partner is engaged in the building of such gateway,\" Cecilia Odello from SITAONAIR told TOI.<\/p> Dubai-based mega carrier Emirates also faces the same issue. \"To meet the current regulatory requirements, Emirates does not enable internet access on board our flights over Indian air space. The regulatory framework is complex but it is evolving and we are confident that in the future this will be resolved allowing our customers to connect to Wi-Fi over India very soon,\" said Patrick Brannelly, Emirates divisional VP (customer experience).<\/p> Industry sources say India imposes this condition due to fears over data security infringement.<\/p> Currently, Emirates offers Wi-Fi connectivity on 75% of its fleet (175 aircraft) - all of its Airbus A380s, as well as most Boeing 777s. \"A comprehensive retrofit programme is also underway to install Wi-Fi capability across the rest of our fleet. Passengers can access 10MBs of free data, enough to send emails, blog, tweet, post on Facebook, or browse the Internet. Also, a token $1 charge is levied for the next 500MB,\" Brannelly said.<\/p> Other international carriers such as Lufthansa<\/a> and Qatar Airways<\/a> who offer on-board Wi-Fi did not comment for the story.<\/p> Indian airlines, meanwhile, are watching from the sidelines. The big two - Air India<\/a> and Jet that operate long haul flights to far off places like North America and Australia - do not have Wi-Fi on their planes. AI toyed with this idea some years back but a senior official said: \"It is simply too expensive for us to offer.\" Jet did not comment.<\/p> <\/div><\/div>
