TCI Aircraft Interiors, Turkish Airlines and Turksat sign MoU

Turkish Airlines has announced plans to provide all passengers with free, unlimited, uninterrupted and fast connectivity service within two years, from the end of 2025.

The airline said it plans to retrofit its existing fleet with the latest inflight connectivity (IFC) technologies and equip the new aircraft with the most efficient IFC technologies available. This will enable the carrier to extend the IFC service currently offered in the majority of its fleet to the entire Turkish Airlines fleet, so passengers can access Wi-Fi free of charge.

The carrier is actively negotiating with local and international suppliers that can offer the best IFC service solutions for its entire fleet. Turkish Airlines provides support to Turkish companies in the development of solutions for this connectivity service.

As such, Turkish Airlines has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with TCI Aircraft Interiors and Turksat, a regional leader in satellite technologies. The signing of the MoU demonstrates the airline’s commitment to leveraging national capacity and supporting Turkish companies in establishing a presence in the IFC sector.
