Brittany Ferries<\/a>, the cross-channel ferry company that operates a large fleet of ferries and cruise ships between France and the UK, Ireland, and Spain, and between the UK and Spain, has partnered up with Telenor Maritime to upgrade their on-board mobile and WiFi<\/a> connectivity for passengers.<\/p>\n

The new connectivity platform will offer Premium Wi-Fi, VSAT and Mobile Broadband Backhaul. Additionally Honfleur, the forthcoming clean, green, LNG-powered newbuild ferry arriving in June 2019, will also be equipped with 3G<\/a> services. At present it’s already possible to connect with a free WiFi<\/a> service on-board, although this imposes some restrictions on content and is fed by a fairly slow Satellite<\/a> link (see video below).<\/p>\n

The CSO of Telenor Maritime, Jan Erik Norli<\/strong>, said: “We are delighted to be in a position to develop our partnership and services with Brittany Ferries. We are confident that our communications services will substantially enhance the customer journey on the ships we are upgrading. This is yet another important step for Telenor Maritime\u2019s service-expansion in Europe.<\/em>“<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
