British Airways In‑flight Experience

Project goal

International Airlines Group, owner of British Airways commissioned Solvers for a Solutions Acceleration program to explore the future of short-haul entertainment and commerce.

IAG’s vision was to conceptualize a world-class Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) in-flight entertainment and eCommerce system. This system would allow a user to quickly connect and engage with the breadth of incredible content that British Airways has to offer, with order to seat and one-click checkout being absolute fundamentals of the solution.

This collaborative engagement between Solvers and IAG involved design thinking, research, strategy design, product management, digital, interactive prototype design and user testing. At the end, Solvers delivered an interactive prototype that was validated by end users, as well as a comprehensive user testing report.

From flight insights to destination highlights, each part of the experience has been refined to delight passengers onboard.

A series of in-depth design thinking sessions in collaboration with the client. Coming home with an understanding of the challenge and a suitcase of colored post-it notes.

Dozens of interviews and surveys to get an in-depth understanding of the meal planning, cooking, and serving processes at Airbnb. We are excited to know there are many ways to improve employee's and the Food team's experience.

“I really want to have a better planning of my longer trips. Knowing the in-flight schedule and transfer flight informations would help massively.”
