Airtext+
Stay Connected — Email, SMS Messages, and Phone
HOW IT WORKS
It’s as easy as…
A small “paperback” sized FAA-approved Airtext box weighing about 1 pound that is installed on the airplane and connects to the existing iridium phone antenna.
Up to 16 passengers on the aircraft can connect to the Airtext using BLE (Bluetooth low energy) on their modern mobile phone.
Passengers download the FREE Airtext mobile app and can seamlessly send and receive text messages while on-board. Messages only cost 5 cents.
