El Al Launches New Iridium-Based Calling Service for Passengers El Al Airlines is introducing a new passenger calling service that will provide worldwide telephone connections in-flight through the Iridium satellite network. The Israeli airline will offer the calling service for passengers in all classes on its fleet of B-767s, through GayaCom, a subsidiary of Gilat Satcom, which is supplying the Iridium satellite terminals and calling card services. GayaCom is the authorized Iridium service provider in Israel. Passengers will be able to purchase the calling cards duty-free in flight, and use them to place calls to terrestrial phone numbers anywhere in the world for $1.60 (U.S.) per minute. The cards will be valid for 12 months and will be usable on future flights. El Al expects to complete the installations on all of its 767s early this year. 01-31-2006.
