The Flymingo Box system offers a flexible, aircraft-powered digital suite to enhance passenger experience, aircraft operations, and provide unparalleled wireless inflight entertainment options. The IFE also deploys real-time travel information and a seamless e-commerce platform, placing power and ease of use at passengers’ fingertips throughout their journey.
With a projected growth of 15 aircrafts by 2025, Canada Jetlines aims to offer the best-in-class operating economics, customer comfort and fly-by-wire technology, providing an elevated guest centric experience. The Flymingo Box will build on this with its browser-based platform, enabling secure streaming on personal devices. By integrating this dynamic program, the new leisure airline aims to elevate passengers' experience and enhance comfort in the cabin while creating ancillary revenue opportunities.
“This partnership and the technology provided by Moment strengthens our capacity to offer innovative services for crew and passengers alike,” stated Duncan Bureau, Chief Commercial Officer of Canada Jetlines. “We are confident that the Flymingo system will expand upon Jetlines travel experience, aligning with our mission to provide comfort and convenience from the first touch point during a time where constant connection is key for peace of mind.”
“Moment is proud to support the launch of Canada Jetlines. We’ve built a digital experience in line with the values of the airline, and experiences to delight the greatest number of passengers”, said Yves Laffiché, CCO of Moment. “With Canada Jetlines, we are strengthening our position on the North American market and our will to support airlines with advantageous economic models adapted to tomorrow’s aviation”.
The Flymingo Box is the most capable portable W-IFE solution in the industry and has met the expectations of the airline by enabling passengers to connect easily to a local cloud, via their browser, and to access entertainment services directly on their mobile devices. Designed as a compact, battery-operated or aircraft powered server, the system has the capacity to provide video streaming to 100 passengers simultaneously. With this flexible solution, the airline will be able to offer state-of-the-art services to its travelers: AVOD streaming, digital shopping and an interactive moving map.
The new all-Canadian carrier is backed by a seasoned team of aviation-industry executives and board of directors, offering convenient travel options and more destination choices than competitors.
