[Avionics Today 12-15-2014] Global Eagle Entertainment (GEE) has announced it will manage Canada’s low-cost carrier WestJet’s in-flight content services. This comes as part of WestJet’s initiative to overhaul its existing In-Flight Entertainment (IFE) system and replace it with a wireless IFE solution.

GEE will provide a broad array of content that can be accessed by passengers using their personal electronic devices or tablets rented from the airline. Through this long-term agreement, GEE will provide a selection of movies and television beginning in the first quarter of 2015.
