Wow! You actually stream Netflix to an airplane? I always guessed that inflight VOD services had the movies stored in a server on the plane.

Things like the Delta “gogo in-flight entertainment” do store their movies on the plane, but people will want to watch their Netflix/Prime/etc content on the plane as well.

Both.

There’s “inflight entertainment” where all the movies/shows are indeed stored locally on the plane, with either seatback or custom/white label streaming app for BYOD.

But in addition they were advertising streaming Netflix and YouTube over the satellite WiFi.
