Al Jazeera Media Network continues to strengthen its global presence, signing two landmark partnerships during WTM with Superyacht IPTV and TVHOTEL. These collaborations extend the reach of its trusted journalism, award-winning documentaries, and world-class news and current affairs programming to affluent holidaymakers and audiences across Spain’s hospitality sector.
Through its collaboration with Superyacht IPTV, the world’s first fully licensed IPTV service designed exclusively for the superyacht industry, Al Jazeera English and Al Jazeera Arabic will now be available onboard luxury vessels worldwide. Guests can access live news and in-depth analysis from one of the world’s most respected news organisations, ensuring they stay informed and connected wherever their journey takes them.
“Superyacht IPTV was created to redefine onboard viewing with legal, high-quality, and globally accessible content,” said Tjeerd van Groenland and John Baqar, Co-Founders of Superyacht IPTV. “Our partnership with Al Jazeera extends that vision beyond entertainment and sport — ensuring guests remain informed and connected with world events through one of the most respected news networks on the planet.”
The integration operates seamlessly through a dedicated onboard server authorised via each vessel’s IMO registration and connected to a secure global cloud network. This guarantees uninterrupted live coverage, unrestricted by geographical barriers, offering a truly borderless viewing experience that mirrors the spirit of adventure embodied by the world’s finest superyachts.
At the same time, Al Jazeera has entered into a partnership with TVHOTEL, a leading provider of television services for the hospitality industry in Spain. This collaboration ensures that hotel guests across Spain gain access to reliable, insightful international news and global perspectives — a vital service in today’s rapidly evolving world.
“It is an honour for us to have Al Jazeera among our key partners to make sure quality news services are reaching the hospitality market, as the need for understanding the world is critical in our days,” said Pablo Romero, CEO of TVHOTEL. “We thank Al Jazeera for its confidence and collaboration, and we look forward to a long and fruitful partnership that continues to bring excellence, integrity, and global awareness to hotels and their guests throughout Spain.”
Commenting on the partnerships, Ramzan Alnoimi, Acting Executive Director of Global Communications and Brand at Al Jazeera Media Network, said: “We are delighted to collaborate with Superyacht IPTV and TVHOTEL to bring Al Jazeera’s in-depth news, current affairs content, and award-winning programmes to global audiences across the hospitality sector. These partnerships reflect our commitment to ensuring that people everywhere remain informed and connected to the stories shaping our world.”
These partnerships mark a significant step forward in Al Jazeera’s mission to extend its global reach, now connecting with an estimated seven million hotel rooms worldwide and entering the luxury maritime market. Through such collaborations, Al Jazeera reaffirms its commitment to delivering trusted journalism and diverse global perspectives to audiences everywhere.
