These days Wi-Fi has become a necessity, a part of our everyday lives that we just can't live without. That demand is now being seen in the friendly skies, as fliers prefer a Wi-Fi connection to amenities such as more legroom or better food.
Carriers are taking note, and one company that stands to benefit from this trend is Global Eagle Entertainment (Nasdaq: ENT).
Global Eagle provides airline passengers with Internet access, live television, video content, shopping and travel information. Its in-flight services have been installed on more than 500 aircraft, covering both land and sea. Through its subsidiary Advanced Inflight Alliance (AIA), Global Eagle provides film and television content, games and applications to more than 130 airlines worldwide.
