What changed: The story was updated to include the strategic partnership with Boeing to offer SES hardware as a factory line-fit option, shifting focus from a single airline deal to a broader industry integration.

SES and Boeing have reached a significant milestone by establishing multi-orbit connectivity as a factory line-fit option for new aircraft. Under this agreement, Boeing will install SES in-cabin hardware during the production phase, allowing airlines to activate connectivity services immediately upon delivery. This strategic expansion follows Japan Airlines' (JAL) recent selection of SES to equip 20 Airbus A350-900 aircraft with advanced electronically steered antenna (ESA) systems. By integrating hardware at the factory level, SES and Boeing are streamlining the adoption of high-speed, multi-orbit internet for global carriers. This partnership underscores the aviation industry's shift toward seamless, high-bandwidth passenger experiences. For SES, the move to line-fit status represents a major commercial advancement in the competitive inflight connectivity market.
