Moment, a leading provider of digital entertainment and connectivity solutions, is proud to announce its strategic partnership with Garuda Indonesia to spearhead the airline’s expansion of its wireless Inflight Entertainment (W-IFE) capabilities.
Under a three-year agreement, Moment has deployed 64 Flymingo Box units to enhance the digital onboard experience for Indonesia’s national carrier. These units represent Moment’s proprietary wireless IFE hardware, specifically designed to modernize the inflight journey.
The Flymingo Box is a compact and autonomous solution that enables a seamless Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) experience, allowing passengers to stream a vast library of entertainment directly to their personal smartphones, tablets, or laptops. Each Flymingo Box is designed with a battery life of 12 to 14 hours and can accommodate up to 100 devices concurrently during a flight.
To ensure optimal performance and high-quality streaming for all passengers, two devices are typically deployed per aircraft, providing a robust and reliable connection throughout the cabin without the need for complex modifications.

The deployment focuses on 15 selected aircraft within Garuda Indonesia’s fleet, specifically the Boeing 737-800 NG, Boeing 737-8, and Airbus A330-900 Neo. “Our collaboration with Garuda Indonesia is a testament to the growing demand for flexible and high-performance wireless solutions,” said Tanguy Morel, CEO and co-founder of Moment.
“By supporting Garuda with 64 Flymingo Boxes, we are helping them rapidly expand their wireless IFE project, ensuring a modernized service that aligns with the expectations of today’s tech-savvy travelers who prefer using their own devices for a personalized viewing experience.”
To ensure a world-class content offering, Moment has partnered with Anuvu to deliver a diverse and premium entertainment catalog. This selection features the latest Hollywood new releases and blockbusters, a dedicated collection of Indonesian films, as well as high-quality music albums and podcasts.
Notably, the Flymingo Box introduces innovative features not currently available on the airline’s traditional seatback IFE, including e-reading materials and vertical dramas, a short-form series format optimized for smartphone viewing. To ensure the experience remains fresh and engaging for frequent flyers, the entire content library is refreshed every two months.
This initiative represents a core component of Garuda Indonesia’s ongoing commitment to service excellence and innovation. By integrating Moment’s agile Flymingo Box technology with professional content curation, the airline is successfully expanding its digital footprint and providing a more flexible, modern entertainment solution across its domestic and international networks.
