Eutelsat ramping up LEO-enabled aviation services with
high-speed, low latency connectivity

• Eutelsat’s OneWeb LEO services are now live and operational for
commercial and business aviation customers.

• Air Canada and Embraer Phenom 300 amongst the first to fly using
Eutelsat’s services.

• Backlog currently represents over 1,000 aircraft.

Paris, 2 April 2025 - Eutelsat (ISIN: FR0010221234 - Euronext Paris / London Stock
Exchange: ETL) today announced its OneWeb low Earth orbit (LEO) services for commercial
and business aviation are now live and operational, with over 100 certified antenna
installations completed and the first commercial and business aircraft now flying using
Eutelsat’s OneWeb LEO connectivity.

In addition to its long-established geostationary (GEO) aviation services, Eutelsat is working
with Intelsat, Hughes and Panasonic Avionics to deliver LEO and multi-orbit solutions to the
commercial aviation market. Air Canada is the first commercial airline to deploy the multi-orbit
GEO/LEO service, through Intelsat, with additional world-class carriers also beginning
installations and commercial flights with multi-orbit solutions on board.

In business aviation, Eutelsat has partnered with industry leader, Gogo, to equip the first
Embraer Phenom 300 with LEO services, while aircraft manufacturer, Textron, will be installing
solutions on the Cessna Citation Longitude, Latitude and Ascend models as well as Airbus
Corporate Jets on all Airbus ACJ types.

Together, Eutelsat’s aviation services have a combined backlog of over 1,000 aircraft
scheduled for installation.

“Eutelsat’s LEO aviation services, powered by the OneWeb constellation, provide high speed,
low latency, and premium performance to meet the evolving connectivity needs of airlines and
business jets globally,” said Cyril Dujardin, President of the Connectivity Business Unit at
Eutelsat. "With a robust backlog and expanding reach across both commercial and business
aviation, we are confident in the long-term growth of our aviation services. We believe that a
fully integrated IFC ecosystem will transform in-flight connectivity, providing airlines with
flexible, responsible, and scalable solutions that enhance the passenger experience and
support the future of air travel worldwide."
