SriLankan Airlines will introduce wireless in-flight entertainment to select narrow-body A320 aircraft, enabling passengers to seamlessly stream content from their own devices.
The new technology means that passengers on certain short-haul flights can now experience greater personalization and convenience while enjoying their favorite movies, music and more in-flight.
Commenting on this latest product enhancement, Maria Sathasivam, Product Development Manager, SriLankan Airlines, said, “We are delighted to make our award-winning in-flight entertainment content more accessible to our loyal customers. Wireless entertainment is emerging as a game-changer in the industry, offering multiple benefits for both consumers and airlines. As an airline that embraces innovation, keeping the passenger experience at the heart of everything we do, it is a natural step for SriLankan Airlines to join the ranks of global airlines offering wireless in-flight entertainment.
Passengers can use their smartphones, tablets or laptops to access and stream on-demand content via the airline’s Wi-Fi network, SkyPlus, without the need for seat-back screens. Powered by the wireless streaming solution Everhub, passengers are instantly connected to SriLankan’s in-flight entertainment system, with an expertly curated library with something for everyone. From the latest Hollywood blockbusters to regional favorites, the library contains hours of movies and TV shows in a variety of languages and genres, including action, comedy, drama, adventure, children’s, music and sports. Passengers can enjoy over 100 hand-picked audio albums featuring music for every listener, from international hits to local classics. SriLankan Airlines, which won the prestigious 2025 APEX Best Entertainment Award in Central/South Asia based on verified passenger feedback, is set to become more environmentally friendly with its in-flight entertainment systems going wireless. Wireless entertainment systems are lightweight and contribute to fuel efficiency and savings in the long run, while ensuring passengers have on-demand access to the latest content for a more engaging and enjoyable experience.
