Kenya Airways partners with IFE Alliance
Kenya Airways has awarded its contract for the provision of all in-flight audio and video entertainment to the IFE Alliance beginning in May 2008. Video IFE consisting of Hollywood, Bollywood and Nollywood movies, along with international and African TV programmes, will be supplied by Atlas Air Film + Media Service through their office in Germany. In-flight Productions Ltd., based in London, is the IFE Alliance audio partner for Kenya Airways.
Atlas Air Film + Media Service Managing Director Jörg Schiffmann notes, “This is a great opportunity for Atlas and the whole IFE Alliance to bring our global expertise to bear on a leading African airline client. We are confident that, together with the IFE team at Kenya Airways, we will find just the right mix of content to cater to African as well as international passengers on board.”
Kenya Airways has a mixed fleet of Boeing 737s, 767s and 777s. Their IFE hardware includes TES and AVOD systems from Rockwell Collins, a Rockwell Collins tape-based system, as well as Panasonic’s 2000 system. A representative of Kenya Airways’ IFE team comments, “With the growth of our airline, we strive to offer world-class IFE services to our passengers from across the globe. We believe our passengers will greatly enjoy our revamped IFE product.”
