Fly Baghdad selects Moment for wireless IFE

Fly Baghdad is rolling out wireless IFE from Moment across its fleet of five Boeing 737 NG aircraft following a successful limited trail.

The Flymingo Box platform has been offering various content to passenger’s personal devices since mid-September onboard three 737 NG aircraft. In addition to entertainment, including press publications, flight information such as a moving map has been available. Fly Baghdad will also be able to improve its retail performance with an online duty-free and catering catalogue for passenger purchases.

“Onboard digital innovation is an important step in raising the level of our fleet and transforming the way passengers travel,” commented Basheer Al-Shabbani, CEO of Fly Baghdad. “The partnership with Moment allows us to adopt a ready-to-use W-IFE system that is also a globally recognised solution. Flexible and robust, it offers our passengers quality content. We are already working with Moment on the next step which is to install Flymingo Box in new aircraft in the process of being acquired and added to our fleet.”

“We are pleased to count Fly Baghdad among our customers. This partnership is important for Moment, supporting our strategy on the Middle Eastern market,” stated Tanguy Morel, CEO & co-founder of Moment. He added: “By helping Fly Baghdad enhance its passengers’ experience via Flymingo Box, we aim to contribute to optimise the services available during the flight and to strengthen, as a result, the reputation of the airline.”
