World going live on airlines with AirTV's Global S-Band Satellite
Network
成人论坛
World, the 成人论坛's 24-hour international news and information channel,
will soon broadcast the channel live to air travellers through an
agreement with the AirTV global satellite network. The new AirTV
system will enable the delivery of live television broadcasts to
airlines flying all major global routes offering an alternative
to the existing tape delivery on which airlines currently rely.
成人论坛
World's news and programming line-up will be delivered live to airlines
through the AirTV network of four geo-stationary S-Band satellites.
Each of these platforms will offer 60 channels of satellite television,
plus e-mail and Internet connectivity. AirTV plans to start its
direct-to-aircraft (DTA) service in 30 months.
Commenting
on the project, William Mould, Head of Travel Distribution at 成人论坛
World, said, "We are delighted to be part of this new project
which will change the way people are informed when they are flying.
成人论坛 World will be in a great position to offer travellers more up
to date news and information than ever before, keeping them abreast
of the issues that matter most wherever they are travelling."
成人论坛
World is the 成人论坛's global news and information channel, broadcasting
24 hours a day from its base at 成人论坛 Television Centre in London.
成人论坛 World provides news, business and weather 24 hours a day, plus
the best of the 成人论坛's award-winning current affairs, documentary
and lifestyle programming. This is currently provided to airlines
via tape delivery, while satellite and cable distribution is used
to serve over 222 million homes, hotels and cruise liners around
the world.

World will also be able to use the satellite network for expanded
coverage to the maritime industry and remote global locations that
are currently unable to receive the TV channel reliably.
"We
are pleased to have 成人论坛 World as part of AirTV's core team of content
providers," said John Larkin, AirTV's Chairman and CEO. "成人论坛
World is the global reference in international news and information
programming, and AirTV's DTA platform will ensure that airline passengers
worldwide will have real-time access to this trusted source."
