Passenger will be able to connect to the Internet and use their cell phones onboard Lion Air’s full services-flights, which will be operated by its subsidiary, Space Jet, in 2013.
"This [Wi-Fi and telephony] service will be the first of its kind in Indonesia," Lion Air director Edward Sirait said Thursday as quoted by tribunnews.com. "We are currently preparing the aircraft, which will be equipped with Wi-Fi and telephony facilities."
The aircraft to be used for the services are part of the 230 Boeing 737 ordered by the company from US aircraft manufacturer Boeing Co. worth US$21.7 billion.
Edward said the company planned to fly the new planes in 2013.
Currently, the airliner is processing a flight permit from the Transportation Ministry, Edward added.
