The NBAA display follows an initial successful installation of SmartSky hardware on Cessna Citation X series business jets at flyExclusive’s facilities in Kinston, North Carolina.

flyExclusive and SmartSky are displaying the new offering at NBAA Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition, where they will showcase their advanced ATG capabilities. flyExclusive's core value of ‘Minutes Matter’ takes the initiative to be efficient, safe, cost-conscious, accurate, and customer-centered – promoting travel without disruption. SmartSky’s allows them to have real-time communications with people on the ground.

“At flyExclusive, we pride ourselves on delivering a premium experience every time out of the gate,” said Jim Segrave, Founder and CEO at flyExclusive. “SmartSky delivers dependable and secure connectivity that not only enhances the passenger experience, offering the ability to live stream and conduct high quality video calling, but also provides real-time data transfer to and from the aircraft. Our Cessna Citation X has successfully used the SmartSky system, and we’ve experienced the connectivity firsthand – it’s a fantastic product.”

Dave Helfgott, CEO of SmartSky, added: “SmartSky and flyExclusive are companies that value innovation and delivering the very best for our customers. Our alignment in providing a consistent, uninterrupted service to customers speaks for r itself. We look forward to showcasing our nationwide coverage, reliable connectivity, and easy-to-install technology alongside flyExclusive at NBAA 2022.”

flyExclusive and Smartsky will be showcasing their services at NBAA at booth #3077, and at their static display (AD_405 and AD_305).
