Panasonic Avionics: Advanced technology markets are also the world's key travel markets

Panasonic Avionics reported (22-Jan-2017) there is a correlation between the world's most advanced technology markets - as shown by data from the World Economic Forum's Networked Readiness Index (NRI) - and the world's key travel markets, comprising North America, Europe and the Asia Pacific. According to Panasonic, the overlap between popular travel routes and the world's most advanced technology markets sends a clear message: Those who travel these routes are accustomed to high levels of connectivity. The digital sophistication of these economies may raise travelers' expectations of continuous internet access - meaning having high-speed internet on board aircraft will become more than just a nice-to-have feature.
