EgyptAir signs contract with SITA
EgyptAir has signed a five-year contract with SITA, for the implementation, management and modernisation of the airline's communications network.
SITA is providing the carrier with a network that will provide secure and reliable connectivity to EgyptAir’s headquarters and across 190 sites.
“We are constantly searching for ways to enhance our operational efficiency and with SITA’s range of IP services, we have a communications solution that covers all of our domestic and international sites and connects them to our headquarters,” said EgyptAir Holding Company’s chairman and CEO, Sherif Fathi.
SITA’s ServiceNet will also allow access to more than 20 third-party services from EgyptAir’s existing IP VPN connections. Also as part of the contract, EgyptAir will deploy SITA messaging services in order to exchange mission-critical information with its partners across the air transport community.
