Busine Aviation Customers Take Advantage of New Level of Performance for Yonder In-flight Internet

18/10/2013

Traffic throughput increasing as customers report greater performance, availability

Carlsbad, Calif. - Business Aviation customers of Yonder high-speed Internet service from ViaSat Inc. (NASDAQ:VSAT) are benefitting from higher performance as they take advantage of the 60 percent increase in network bandwidth, new provisioning systems, and earth station hub upgrades announced earlier this year. With Yonder customer data traffic more than doubling in 2 years, the upgrades and architecture of the ViaSat Global Network enable it to deliver more speed, coverage, availability, and value.

Yonder service is the fastest in-flight Internet for business jets, providing high-speed Internet access, VoIP, and office applications. Premium classes of Yonder high-speed Internet service - Yonder Premium and Yonder VIP - support uninterrupted video streaming, new quality of service assurances, and enhanced network operations and customer support. And all Yonder customers see the value of their service increase as they use more data because the service features data plans with a fixed monthly charge, rather than billing for megabytes used.

We had one customer recently fly a 12,000 nautical mile trip - over 28 hours in the air - and they reported to us that service had never been better, said Ric VanderMeulen, VP/GM of ViaSat Global Mobile Broadband. With the migration complete, this new level of performance is available to all customers and services we host on the ViaSat Global Network.
