[Via Satellite 06-13-2016] Aeromexico is launching a pilot program to provide complimentary in-flight access to streaming video network Netflix. Netflix members onboard select Aeromexico flights within Mexico, Central and South America will be able to stream Netflix programming on their phones, tablets and laptops at no cost June 17 and through October 17.
Gogo’s 2Ku satellite Wi-Fi system, which launched on five Boeing 737-800 aircraft in Aeromexico’s fleet in April, is enabling the in-flight streaming trial.
