Vistara to offer live cricket at 40,000 feet

Live Mint  

Vistara, the Indian affiliate of Singapore Airlines Ltd., will become the country’s first carrier to offer in-flight Wi-Fi and streaming services on its new Boeing Co. 787 Dreamliners, in what could boost its ambitions as a premium airline in one of the world’s busiest markets. Passengers will be able to access sites like Facebook and messaging service WhatsApp, as well as live-stream cricket matches, by far the most popular sport in India, though watching games may eat up a lot of data, Vistara Chief Strategy Officer Vinod Kannan told reporters in New Delhi on Wednesday. India’s aviation ministry has since worked with the telecommunications department to offer in-flight connectivity for voice, data and video services by amending provisions of the Indian Telegraph Act and associated rules. Now-defunct Jet Airways India Ltd. and Vistara had experimented with one-way wireless streaming technology that enabled passengers to play a selection of video and audio content directly on their phones and other personal devices.
