In-flight Entertainment
Dramatic progress has been made over recent years in the development of new systems for in-flight entertainment, giving passengers much greater choice and variety to occupy their time during a flight, a welcome benefit, especially, on long distance routes.
THAI has taken advantage of the very latest technological advances in this field to install a state-of-the-art Audio-Visual On-Demand in-flight entertainment system on its newest jetliners and retrofit the new system on many of its jetliners in its existing fleet*.
The new THAI interactive AVOD system offers literally hundreds of options. With larger screens and touch-control commands, passengers can choose between many of the latest multi-lingual hit movies, classic oldies and popular TV programmes. There are news, travel destination and information channels, music from jazz to classical, Asian to Western, to please every taste, plus interactive games and kids cartoons. Passengers can learn the basics of a new language and even practice meditation with the new AVOD system.
To assist passengers in making their selection among the hundreds of options available, THAI offers “Vision”, a comprehensive printed guide, on board. The choice is endless, the pleasure unlimited – just another example of the THAI desire to make every flight more rewarding for everyone.
