Not sure how or where to start in offering accessible inflight entertainment? Perhaps you have started that journey and want to learn more from others who have been down that path?
IFECtiv is committed to diversity, equity and inclusion. When it comes to inflight entertainment, we like to offer innovative solutions that create inclusive experiences, products and services that any person of any level of ability can use within the aircraft cabin.
Having done extensive work in creating accessible inflight entertainment experiences that people of all abilities can use, including people with visual, hearing, language and mobility challenges, this brings some realizations that the solutions for airlines are not a one size fits all especially airlines with a diverse fleet. With the variety of IFEC products, systems and suppliers that an airline can have onboard, accessibility solutions need to be tailored for each product yet create consistency within the IFEC ecosystem to achieve a truly accessible inflight entertainment experience that reflects on an airlines commitment to inclusion and one that all customers can enjoy.
Leading the successful design, development and implementation of a multi-award winning new inflight entertainment system offering a world first with the most extensive suite of accessibility features across an airline fleet of 700+ aircraft does not come without significant learnings. Research, and development, stakeholder, supplier and customer education, community engagement, testing, testing and more testing is really just the tip of the iceberg.
IFECtiv founder Corinne Streichert has always stated that she would freely share her learnings and experiences with any airline wanting to learn more about accessible inflight entertainment solutions. With the goal of increasing knowledge and awareness Corinne hopes that this initiative will contribute to the proliferation and advancement of accessible inflight entertainment experiences for all customers.
