US Airways Inflight Entertainment Test of Lumexis System

[applesweeter]

Dear All,

I have some questions

(1) What does inflight entertainment mean to you?

(2) Why does inflight entertainment is important for you flying journey?

(3) What kind of new feature will you expect for the future's inflight entertainment?

(4) What is the best inflight entertainment and airline toys for children?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

A330s do have an audio/video on demand system - just not this particular one

so do you know what you get on an A330 today ?

This was installed in economy on a single airplane, but the test is over, it has been removed, and there's no news as to whether or not they'll eventually install a system like this.

The test was succesfull, and US was impressed, but they will NOT be installing it. :(

@JSprague24 - Lumexis tells me that it's up to the airline if they want to put Airshow on or not. Since this is just a test aircraft, they probably haven't bothered with it. But I imagine that if they go with this for the fleet, they will probably put it on.

[JSprague24]

Are they looking at putting the Airshow or similar moving map on this system? I thought that was the biggest drawback of the system on the A330s...it was great, but you could never keep track of where you were, which we've always found to be fun & a way to stay sane on longer flights.
