Our CEO, Ken Sain, joined an insightful panel at the World Aviation Festival today to discuss 'Designing the digital inflight ecosystem to optimise the future cabin experience'. It was a powerful conversation with leaders from easyJet, United Airlines, Bluebox, and Viasat on shaping the next generation of air travel. Ken spoke about how the focus remains on leveraging technology to deliver a truly personalized experience for every passenger. The key lies in creating an intuitive, connected seatback environment, which drives connectivity, IFEC, and dynamic advertising opportunities for airlines. The future cabin is digital, connected, and customer-centric, and we are excited to drive this transformation!

We are proud to announce upgrades to our award-winning Arc™ in-flight map platform. These enhancements include Arc Vistas (Cinematic Passenger Storytelling), Airline Route Maps, Increased Accessibility and Arc Integration APIs. Arc is the preferred choice of 35 leading airlines worldwide with over 1,000 aircraft committed across multiple fleets and geographies. By combining cinematic design, brand-building tools, and inclusive functionality with developer-friendly APIs, Arc continues to push the moving map category forward and redefine the in-flight map experience. Patrick Biggerstaff, Senior Director of Product Management, Digital Solutions, at Panasonic Avionics, said: “Passengers are looking for more engaging, personalized, and inclusive in-flight experiences, but traditional maps have often felt static and lacking in emotional or informational depth. At the same time, airlines need tools that differentiate their brand, promote their network, and integrate in-flight engagement into broader digital ecosystems, all while meeting growing accessibility expectations.” Read the announcement here: https://bit.ly/3KYcrfL #Inflightentertainment #Innovation #PanasonicAvionics #Passengerexperience #Arc
