IN-FLIGHT CONNECTIVITY ON VIP & BUSINESS AIRCRAFT

In commercial aviation, airlines continue to announce their plans surrounding in-flight connectivity(IFC). Outside of the United States, passengers in many parts of the world have not yet had achance to sample the delights of surfing at 35,000 feet. However, executives and VIPs have beenable to connect on board for some time now. Gogo Business Aviation, which has 8,000 businessaircraft using its solutions has been around since 1991 under a different incarnation, Aircell.Likewise, ViaSat’s high-speed Yonder solution was installed way before Exede In The Air debutedon JetBlue Airways.

While connectivity solutions share similarities across the commercial and business and VIP spaces,the requirements of end-users are markedly different. Indeed, managing expectations of wealthybusinessmen and women, important dignitaries and even royalty who, many times, are used togetting everything they want, can be particularly challenging. That’s not to mention the muchsmaller size of many aircraft and the additional considerations that must be taken into accountwhen installing enabling hardware such as antennas. Consequently, there are a whole set ofdifferent market dynamics at play when it comes to IFC on VIP and business aircraft.

This report will follow on from Valour Consultancy’s comprehensive report on IFC in commercialaviation, which has been purchased by many leading industry participants. Publishing in Q2 2015,“The Future of In-Flight Connectivity on VIP and Business Aircraft” will provide unrivalled insight andanalysis into the current and future deployment of IFC on these aircraft. The number of connectedaircraft in 2015 is to be quantified with forecasts out to 2025. Data will be segmented by fitmenttype, aircraft size, connectivity technology and geographic region with a full qualitative discussionof the key trends at play in support of this. An in-depth discussion of key technology trends and achapter profiling key players is presented, too.

• How many business and VIP jets currently provide in-flight Wi-Fi and/or in-flight cellular connectivity?

• How quickly will the number grow over the next ten years?

• How does the number of connected aircraft vary by geographic region?

• How does this number breakdown by aircraft size (heavy jets, large cabin jets, mid-size jets, light jets and turboprops)

• How do cumulative connections and annual installations break down by communications technology? (ATG, L-band, Ku-band or Ka-band? Hybrid)

• How are existing ATG systems evolving and where will alternatives emerge?

• How are aircraft owners using/planning to use connectivity to realise cost savings?

• What is the current and future size of the market for key enabling hardware (in terms of revenues, unit shipments and average selling prices)?

• What is the current and future size of the market for key enabling hardware (in terms of revenues, unit shipments and average selling prices)?

• Who are the leading suppliers of in-flight connectivity hardware? What is their market share?

• What is the market share of connectivity service providers?

• What are the major technological trends taking place?

• What are the trends surrounding the PEDs brought on-board?

QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED

PROPOSED REPORT CONTENTIt is proposed that the report will be organised into the following chapters:

Chapter 1 – Introduction, Scope and Methodology Contains the report scope and explanations as to what is included and excluded from theresearch. All definitions used are presented in a clear and concise manner, alongside theexchange rates used in our analysis and the base year and forecast methodologies employed.

Chapter 2 – Technology Overview Concentrates on the technical aspects of IFC and provides a comprehensive overview of thedifferent types of solutions. This includes satellite coverage maps – for existing and plannedsatellites, developments in key enabling hardware and relevant standards and regulations.

Chapter 3 – Market Statistics and Trends Quantifies the number of business aircraft equipped with in-flight Wi-Fi and/or cellularconnectivity out to 2025 with factors likely to influence future take up of these technologiessupporting this data. Data is segmented by geographic region, aircraft size, connectivitytechnology and type of fitment.

Chapter 4 – Competitive Environment Looks at the competitive environment of those operating across the entire IFC value chain.Notable mergers and acquisitions are discussed alongside new product developments, keypartnerships, business models and strategies as well as a presentation of market shares ofequipment manufacturers and service providers.
