Change of Management at Connexion by Boeing

Email This Entry

Posted by John Yunker

Scott Carson is no longer president of Connexion by Boeing. He's moving over to VP of commercial airline sales and in his place is Laurette Koellner, who was formerly VP of Internal Services. Hard to tell if this means major changes are in store for Connexion. I like Scott and suspect his skills are needed to help boost sagging jet sales. I still don't fully understand why the new Dreamliner jets don't ship with Wi-Fi by default; maybe he can change that. It seems like a Wi-Fi/picocell infrastructure should be included so that Boeing is in a position to sell the value-add services that airlines increasingly need: consumer voice, data, entertainment, real-time aircraft maintenance, telemedicine, etc.
