Ibadan, 24 May 2023. – Raytheon Technologies’ Collins Aerospace business has announced its plan to bring unlimited data to the customers of Vista, a private aviation group. Using Collins’ LuxStream, which runs exclusively on the SES’s high-throughput satellite (HTS) network, Vista customers can now enjoy fast, reliable, unlimited internet access for their flights.

Since 2019, Vista has installed LuxStream on more than 75 aircraft in its fleet. Now, LuxStream will be installed on more than 100 aircraft. The HTS hardware and solution, exclusive to Collins, allows customers to conduct video conference calls, stream videos, and send emails while inflight.

“Our relationships with Vista and SES deliver exceptional in-flight connectivity experiences to customers,” said Jen Schopfer, president of Connected Aviation Solutions at Collins Aerospace. “A flat hourly rate for global Wi-Fi is a market first, but just the latest in a series of customer-centric innovations that have come from our years of collaboration.”

Likewise, Nick van der Meer, Chief Operating Officer of Vista, said, “At Vista, we are always looking to enhance the customer experience. Whether flying for business or leisure, we know high-speed connectivity, without data limits, is a key value proposition for our customers. Owing to the speeds, many of our customers prefer LuxStream for their in-flight connectivity, ‘ and we can now give them unlimited data simply by connecting to the aircraft’s Wi-Fi.”

Speaking on SES’s contribution, Steve Collar, CEO of SES, also added, “Our network of high-throughput satellites enables Vista’s passengers to experience the same kind of high-speed connectivity services they enjoy on land. This announcement marks the next step in delivering premium services and meeting the needs of business aviation providers and passengers globally.”
