In-flight Wi-Fi Onboard Cebu Pacific Air Flights by OnAir

When I flew with Cebu Pacific Air’s flights 5J 188 bound for Incheon, South Korea on January 14, 2014 and 5J 189 bound for Manila International Airport in the Philippines on January 20, 2014 I got to experience their Wi-Fi service provided by OnAir, a global in-flight connectivity service company.

Zurich-based OnAir delivers its Wi-Fi service by using the Inmarsat SwiftBroadband technology and roaming agreements worldwide.
