The head of Aeroflot, Sergei Alexandrovsky, confirmed that the airline's aircraft will have Internet access, and the airline is already actively working on connecting the ability to access the Network on board.
We have such a project, we are working on it.
It should be noted that aviation is more regulated in terms of restrictions and certification procedures, because the level of safety must be much higher.
Earlier, the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation stated that the Internet in the aircraft of Russian air carriers will not appear until 2027, since the process of certifying new technologies for aviation takes a long time.
In 2026, the launch of the first spacecraft into a highly elliptical orbit is expected, which will provide high-speed Internet on mobile objects.
Thus, in May last year, Aeroflot and Russian Railways signed a cooperation agreement with the aerospace company Bureau 1440, which is creating a group of low-orbit satellites.
A service that allows passengers to use the Internet on Russian aircraft may appear no earlier than 2027-2028, after the deployment of a low-orbit satellite constellation.
Earlier www1.ru wrote that the technologies that will provide high data transfer rates are in the testing stage.
