Dream Cruises' World Dream to Experience Ultra-fast Connectivity with SES Networks

Written on 07 Dec 2017

Luxembourg, 7 December 2017 - Guests and crew members onboard the recently-launched World Dream, Dream Cruises' second-mega ship under Genting Cruise Lines, will experience the transformational, ultra-fast and consistently reliable connectivity powered by SES Networks, SES announced today. With the significantly enhanced connectivity, guests can stream countless movies, game online and share real-time vacation travel videos and photos across social media platforms.

The innovative, low-latency connectivity leverages SES's O3b medium earth orbit (MEO) constellation and fully managed end-to-end services, enabling a high-performance onboard broadband service that delivers a premium experience for World Dream passengers equivalent to that of terrestrial onshore fibre services.

Guests today expect high-performance connectivity to be easily accessible especially when they are on a luxury cruise ship like World Dream, said Thatcher Brown, President of Dream Cruises. Partnering with SES Networks is a win-win situation for us. Not only does it enable us to deliver a truly immersive broadband experience to our cruise guests, it also empowers our customers to decide how and when they want to stay connected.
