Research and Markets: Global In-flight Entertainment (IFE) Market 2015-2019 with Global Eagle Entertainment, Panasonic Avionics, Rockwell Collins & Thales Dominating

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/fqfff6/global_inflight) has announced the addition of the "Global In-flight Entertainment (IFE) Market 2015-2019" report to their offering.

The Global In-flight Entertainment market to grow at a CAGR of 7.55% over the period 2014-2019.

IFE systems are integral value additions for airlines, primarily on long routes. While IFE systems have been around for some time, the move toward providing in-flight connectivity is relatively new. These services enable passengers to enjoy their in-flight time through a host of programs such as games and movies, and enable airlines to effectively engage their passengers and gain a competitive edge over other players.

One of the major trends emerging in this market is the adoption of technologies that reduce IFE installation costs. To this end, major carriers are using Ku band and Ka band for air-to-ground communications, as opposed to IFE systems that run on complex wiring.

According to the report, one of the major drivers in this market is the increased demand for air travel, which has led to increased aircraft production. The demand for air travel, especially from the premium segment, has triggered many innovations in the IFE market. The growing demand for air travel has compelled airline providers worldwide to increase their fleet sizes.

Further, the report states that one such challenge is posed by the fast pace of technological changes in the market, which shortens the life span of existing systems or renders existing systems obsolete in a short period of time.

The continuous upgrading of technology forces airline operators to adopt a wait-and-watch strategy, which could curtail their growth during the forecast period.
