Safran Makes Accessible IFE Designs Available to the Industry

Business

In a significant step towards enhancing accessibility within the aviation industry, Safran Passenger Innovations (SPI) proudly announces the release of its final designs for Accessible In-Flight Entertainment (IFE), initially unveiled at last year's Aircraft Interiors Expo. These innovative designs will be made available to the entire industry at no cost, reinforcing SPI's commitment to inclusivity in air travel.

“Accessible IFE is grounded in our dedication to simplifying user interfaces and highlighting essential functions, enabling individuals with disabilities to effortlessly navigate and enjoy the entertainment system,” stated Ben Asmar, Vice President of Products and Strategy at Safran Passenger Innovations. “A pivotal takeaway from our development process was the importance of consistency. By implementing these designs across the industry, we have an opportunity to create a meaningful impact and significantly enhance access to IFE for all passengers.”

With this initiative, SPI aims to lead the charge in making air travel more equitable, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their abilities, can fully engage with In-Flight Entertainment offerings.
