RJ...enhancing its primary communication services

RJ selects Rockwell Collins as primary communications provider

AMMAN, November 8, 2015

Royal Jordanian, the flag carrier of Jordan, is now using Rockwell Collins’ Arinc GlobaLink to provide primary communications for its fleet of aircraft.

“We fly extensively across desert and oceanic routes, so we needed a communications network with global coverage,” said RJ’s president and CEO Captain Suleiman Obeidat. “Our aircraft are High Frequency Data Link (HFDL) enabled, and the Rockwell Collins Arinc GlobaLink offering includes HF connectivity. Overall, we found the suite of Rockwell Collins’ solutions to be extremely cost effective and capable of meeting our expansion strategy.”

Rockwell Collins’ entire suite of Arinc GlobaLink services, including Very High Frequency (VHF), SATCOM, and HFDL meets the airline’s diverse range of aviation communication needs. The airline is also using Rockwell Collins OpCenter web-based messaging solution and future plans call for the implementation of the company’s Web Aircraft Situational Display (WebASD) to enable global flight tracking.

“The significant expansion of our Arinc global network in Europe, the Middle East and Africa announced earlier this year was a key factor in enabling us to provide the comprehensive coverage that Royal Jordanian and other airlines in this region need,” said Mike DiGeorge, vice president, Commercial Aviation and Networks for Rockwell Collins. “Royal Jordanian is the first Middle Eastern carrier to select Rockwell Collins as its primary provider, and we anticipate more airlines in the region following its lead.” – TradeArabia News Service
