SIA expands iPod connectivity

Monday, 27 Jan, 2009 0

Passengers flying on Singapore Airlines’ new aircraft are being offered iPod and iPhone connectivity.

The carrier is making the service available to all travellers on Airbus A330-300s in Asia.

Previously the connections were limited to all-business class flights between Singapore and New York and Los Angeles.

The connection is part of a new multi-port panel placed next to each passenger’s individual in-flight entertainment screen.

Besides the iPod and iPhone connectivity, it contains a USB port, enabling people to listen to their own music, view their photos or read PDFs.

It also includes an audio-video input, which enables them to plug in their portable media players, to watch their videos via the in-flight entertainment system.

The A330, the first of which was delivered today, will be deployed on routes to Australian and Japanese cities from the end of March.
