Why improve in-flight entertainment?
Interacting with fellow passengers
during a flight creates a unique bond
through shared experiences, fostering
connections across diverse backgrounds
while easing boredom and discomfort.

Overview
SkyConnect is an Inflight Smart TV designed to
seamlessly integrate across airlines, enhancing
connectivity and entertainment in the sky. As my
senior thesis project at Pratt, I designed an intuitive
interface that improves user experience while
aligning with airline branding and passenger needs.
Opportunity
Even though there's a growing trend of international
travel, in-flight experiences have remained largely
unchanged compared to other forms of transportation.
This creates an opportunity to enhance in-flight
entertainment and offer a more engaging,
connected experience.
