KNUTSFORD, England, March 21, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

- National Carrier of Rwanda Chooses Leading Content Service Provider to
Supply Onboard Movies, TV Shows and Audio Channels

Leading in-flight entertainment specialist, IFE Services, has been
selected by RwandAir to meet all of its onboard entertainment requirements.

The agreement covers the provision of Hollywood and Classic movies,
popular TV shows, audio channels and a CD library. The content will be shown
on the African airline's Boeing 737-800 fleet running Panasonic's eFX audio
and visual on demand (AVOD) system.

"We've been supplying original, cost-effective in-flight entertainment to
airlines globally for many years," said Andy McEwan, Managing Director of IFE
Services. "Adding a growing, successful airline such as RwandAir to our
client-base is great news and we look forward to helping them deliver a
fantastic entertainment package to their passengers for many years to come."

RwandAir CEO, John Mirenge, said in a statement: "For the very first time
RwandAir will be purchasing two brand new aircraft. We are very proud of
these Boeing 737-800s which will be fitted with the latest IFE technology
from Panasonic. The prospect of partnering with IFE Services on audio visual
content is one that we find exciting and hope will bring a whole new onboard
experience to our customers."

The national carrier is expected to take delivery of the two Boeing
737-800s in July and September 2011 respectively. These aircraft will be the
first on the African continent to incorporate the "Sky Interior" concept
adopted from the Boeing 787 design.
