Panasonic Avionics Corporation has today announced an agreement with United Airlines as its first customer in the Americas for its new Astrova in-flight engagement (IFE) solution.

United plans to install Astrova on select new Boeing 787 and Airbus A321XLR aircraft beginning in 2025.

This agreement builds upon the airline’s previous commitment in 2021 to install Panasonic Avionics’ X Series and NEXT IFE systems on both widebody and narrowbody aircraft.
