Etihad Airways enhances its entertainment system
ABU DHABI — Etihad Airways, the UAE's national airline, is now offering more than 350 hours of movies and television programmes, following a major upgrade of its in-flight entertainment (IFE).
The audio and video on demand (AVOD) includes features unique to Etihad such as building a video favourites list for the duration of the flight, in addition to more than 200 music albums which increases by ten every month, and 70 international feature-length films.
IFE has developed significantly in recent years from its humble beginnings of one or two films per flight
to state-of-the-art audio-and-video-on-demand systems. Etihad's new fleet of aircraft are fitted with the Thales TopSeries i4000 system which offers more than two weeks of continuous entertainment, covering a wealth of languages and cultures, placing the airline amongst the world's best IFE providers.
Recognising different tastes of guests, Etihad offers 11 genres of music, including several languages, such as Sinhalese, Tamil and German, as well as 12 radio stations.
With the large selection of films and TV programmes to choose from, guests can also make use of the video favourites feature. As they browse through all the entertainment options, they can select titles from the menu and add them to a favourites selection, according to a Press release.
The Thales TopSeries i4000, audio-and-video-on-demand system, was chosen because it like Etihad Airways, wants to deliver the very best in in-flight entertainment. The superior range of features and services are very impressive when compared to the standard in-flight entertainment options available.
Every seat has its own TV screen, with the highlight being the 23 inch personal LCD video screen in the new
Diamond zone suite air theatre. Pearl and Coral zone TVs are also the industry's' largest at 15 inch and 10.4 inch screens, respectively.
