Vistara becomes world's first airline to feature panasonic's Arc

New Delhi, Jan 22 (UNI) The joint venture airline of Tata Group and Singapore Airlines, Vistara has upgraded the map application in its inflight entertainment (IFE) system and launched Arc, Panasonic Avionics’ new, state-of-the-art, 3D inflight map application on its Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft.
As the launch customer of Arc, Vistara is the world’s first airline to offer this immersive inflight map experience to customers that brings a wide range of innovations to the traditional inflight map application, while expanding the concept into a fully integrated experience within the IFE and connectivity system, the airline stated in a press release.
It further added that this map platform will be progressively made available on the airline’s brand new A321 neo aircraft as well.
Arc will be available in all cabins - in the overhead monitors, seatback screens, video handsets as well as on passengers’ mobile devices connected to the inflight Wi-Fi. Passengers will now be able to choose from over 20 distinct map views in 4K for various phases of flight, incorporating everything from stunning 3D satellite imagery, local and global views, down to a personalised feature that enables passengers to see the aircraft’s relative position to their selected map location throughout their flight, said the airline.
More equally engaging features such as the Kids Map and street map views will be introduced in a subsequent release.
“Inflight entertainment plays an extremely important role in the overall experience of flying with an airline, especially on a long flight. Our partnership with Panasonic has helped us in bringing state-of-the-art IFE systems and satellite connectivity to our customers. Arc, with trailblazing capabilities, will not only help us keep our customers engaged on their flights, but also open up a whole new medium for us to interact with them," said Vinod Kannan, Vistara’s Chief Commercial Officer.
