Inflight Dublin, a global provider of inflight entertainment and wireless solutions, has announced the launch of their latest product innovation, EASE: Wellness Breathing Exercise. The release of the wellness product aims to promote the wellbeing of passengers, in the air or on the ground, particularly during these difficult times.

EASE is a user-centred, brand-aligned breathing exercise that helps anxious travellers feel more relaxed during their flight. Compatible with all inflight entertainment systems, the exercise can be housed on any Wireless or Seatback IFE platform. Adopting binaural beats (Audio Frequencies), resonant breathing techniques, and comforting visuals, the goal of the video is to instil a calming and positive experience for the user throughout their flight.

EASE is fully customisable and through the complementary application of an airline’s logo, colour palette, and typography the exercise will tastefully reflect each airline’s brand. This on-trend and extremely helpful product is designed and managed entirely in-house by Inflight Dublin.

Inflight Dublin has been awarded a 3 year contract for the provision of IFE content by Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS), Scandinavia’s leading airline. The first cycle of content provided by Inflight Dublin will commence in January 2020.

An inventory of content including movies, TV shows, music albums and games will be provided by Inflight Dublin. Locally produced and International movies and TV shows will be incorporated into this selection, chosen specifically to cater to the airlines’ audience. A next generation microsite created and managed by Inflight Dublin’s in-house Design and Software teams will also be provided. The microsite will enable passengers to browse the current entertainment, watch trailers and engage with SAS’s IFE offering. The platform is dynamic, enabling content to be seamlessly viewed on mobile, tablet and PC devices. 

SAS operates a fleet of 169 aircraft to 123 global destinations, with hubs in Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm. The inflight entertainment seatback system will be available on all long-haul flights to Asia and the US.

Inflight Dublin is a global provider of IFE content and wireless solutions with over 35 years’ experience within the industry. This latest announcement coincides with the launch of their next generation Everhub™ portable wireless server to be debuted at APEX Expo in September 2019.

Inflight Dublin has been awarded the contract to provide wireless inflight entertainment for a number of Loftleidir Icelandic’s fleet. Loftleidir Icelandic is a subsidiary of Icelandair Group, and has been receiving IFE content from Inflight Dublin since 2018.

Inflight Dublin will be providing its all-in-one wireless IFE solution, Everhub™, across a number of Loftleidir Icelandic’s fleet allowing for an enhanced on board experience for its charter clients.
