AirAsia, the world’s best low-cost carrier, and roKKi, a leading provider of inflight entertainment and connectivity (IFEC) solutions, have together launched inflight access to Twitter on board selected AirAsia flights. This comes as an enhancement to the existing on-board Wi-Fi service that was launched on AirAsia flights last November, which earned the airline an entry into the Malaysian Book of Records for being the ‘First Airline to Provide Wi-Fi On-Board’ in Malaysia. Twitter is the global platform for live, public conversations.

The launch of this latest feature was conducted by Tony Fernandes, AirAsia Group CEO on board AirAsia flight AK5208. The avid user of Twitter tweeted for the first time from 10,000ft above sea level, along with Aliza Knox, Twitter Managing Director, Online Sales, Asia Pacific.

Guests can now enjoy using the Twitter app while they fly by purchasing a roKKi Chats Instant Messaging (IM) package, which also includes access to apps such as WeChat, WhatsApp, LINE, and KakaoTalk. The IM package is priced at RM9 for a total of 3MB data usage on these apps. The on-board Wi-Fi service is available on almost 4,000 flights each month and will continue to increase in number as more aircraft are equipped with the service.

Adrian Lim, Chief Executive Officer of roKKi said, “We’re delighted to have Twitter join the roKKi family. Our focus has always been to provide airline partners with cost-efficient IFEC services and to ensure guests have access to exciting entertainment on board. Providing guests access to the latest Tweets from 10,000ft above sea level is another milestone for us. Chatting, whether through IM apps or social media, is an integral part of our lives and our aim is to help everyone stay connected even while they’re above the clouds.”

Arvinder Gujral, Director, Business Development, South Asia, Twitter said, “People love using Twitter as we show you what’s happening in your world right now. Our users want to stay connected, check their timelines and Tweet, whether they are on the ground or in a flight. Through this partnership with roKKi, we are the first social media app available via wifi on AirAsia flights, enabling travellers to continue their live, public conversations on Twitter as well as stay up to date on the news that matters most to them.”
