Satellite Beach, Fla. (October 5, 2008) – Satcom Direct, a leading
innovator of satellite voice, fax, and Internet data service
solutions, announces it has signed an agreement to work with Honeywell
International, a leader in cockpit and cabin management systems, to
provide flight support and cabin communications services in a one-stop
package.

Some of the service features contained within this comprehensive
package include accurate flight planning information, reliable e-mail
and data communications connectivity, and satellite television.

This joint effort offers aircraft operators increased flexibility in
choosing services to meet their specific business requirements.  In
addition, by purchasing flight support and cabin communications
services as a comprehensive package, operators save the time and cost
of managing multiple contracts and suppliers.  The new comprehensive
package allows operators to purchase and utilize specific services
separately from both Honeywell and Satcom Direct.

“Working with Honeywell on this package allows us to combine Satcom
Direct’s strength in delivering satellite-based service solutions with
the integrity and recognition of the Honeywell name,” said Jim Jensen,
founder and owner of Satcom Direct.  “Our focus at Satcom Direct is to
deliver unparalleled technology and customer support that ensures
private aviation travelers and all of our customers receive the
connectivity they need, when and where they need it.”

“This new agreement enables us to offer operators proven technologies
and customer service capabilities that provide more value,” said Rob
Wilson, President of Honeywell Business and General Aviation.  “We’re
offering a one-stop solution for staying connected seamlessly.”

Along with the comprehensive package, Satcom Direct will now handle
support and account management of Honeywell’s existing cabin services,
including OneLink(TM), OneView, and JetMapII(TM).  “With Satcom Direct
handling the support and service of these programs, it creates a
further win-win solution for aircraft operators who already benefit
from Satcom Direct and Honeywell’s outstanding technology and global
connectivity,” said Wilson.

Additional details regarding cabin communications services
availability and pricing can be obtained by contacting Satcom Direct
at 321-777-3000, sales@satcomdirect.com or online at
