Mach selected by aeromobile for world's first in-flight mobile phone service

Luxembourg: MACH, one of the leading providers of inter-operator solutions to the telecommunications and data industry worldwide, today announced that it has been selected as a partner by AeroMobile to support the deployment of the world's first in-flight mobile service. MACH's expertise in financial and data clearing services made the company the ideal choice for AeroMobile in this venture to bring mobile roaming to the skies.
Emirates, one of the world's largest airlines with a state of the art fleet of aircraft, will be the first carrier to introduce the service.
Callers will be able to use the aircraft system if their mobile provider has a roaming agreement with AeroMobile. Once the aircraft is airborne and has reached the required altitude, passengers can simply switch their mobile phone on to take advantage of this innovative system.
Headquartered in Luxembourg, MACH has regional offices in Denmark, Brazil, Germany, India, Poland, Russia, Singapore, U.K., United Arab Emirates and USA.
