On 01 July 2020, Jennifer Coutts Clay, Author, JETLINER CABINS e-book app moderated the Passenger Experience Conference (PEC) webinar 'Responding to Disruption: Quick Fix or Profound Change?’
During this webinar, Johannes Lampela, Director of Design, Los Angeles, Designworks (A BMW Group Company), explored how disruptions in the automotive space might help aviation to adapt to new market conditions. During the session, Coutts Clay and Lampela discussed a 'post-COVID design brief for a better cabin experience and a focus on what matters to the customer.'
This session addressed key questions on the challenge ahead for aviation: How can airlines best reassure customers of healthy flying conditions? How can they create comfort in feeling safe, cared for, and in control? Lampela proposed an 'experience first — inside out approach' to cabin design, with experiences which rebuild trust, moment by moment.
Participants in this webinar also had an opportunity to download the new Case Study 2020 CABIN HEALTH ALERTS, which has been added to Jetliner Cabins Chapter 9 'Look Smart: Keep Clean' and examines the latest trends in managing the pandemic while taking care of passenger well-being and preserving the airline brand. Featuring insights from medical and industry experts, Jetliner Cabins author Jetliner Coutts Clay explores key considerations for healthy flight: Cabin Air Filters, Air Travel Hygiene, Rethinking the Aircraft Seat, Sanitizing the Cabin, Communicating Covid-19 Cabin Concepts, Airport Hygiene, Passenger Care in the Cabin and Future Flying Healthy. As Jetliner Cabins readers have come to expect from this unique E-Book app, the informative content is supplemented by rich images of flying healthy solutions, and a listing of companies and experts.

podcast. In their conversation, Jennifer explains airline considerations
for seller-furnished or buyer-furnished equipment. They explore “trickle down
product upgrades” from first class to business to coach, and what that means
for the future of first class. Jennifer also explains how corporate travel
departments have indirectly affected cabin design and fare structures, and the
importance of minor miscellaneous items (MMI) to the passenger experience. They

also gave her perspective on the impacts of the Boeing 747 and the Concorde,
both iconic aircraft.

As Jennifer explains: 'The TravelPlus Awards show-case the dazzling range of Amenity Kits now available to airline passengers worldwide. For decades, first- and business-class Amenity Kits have been cherished as special souvenirs of memorable long-haul flights. Amenity Kit programs present major opportunities for airlines and manufacturers to display creativity and ingenuity when developing customized personal-care accessories. Promoting customer well-being throughout the duration of ever-longer flights is a highly competitive marketing challenge, and Amenity Kits have evolved from simply providing basic passenger-comfort items. Today’s luxurious giveaway bags, wallets, boxes, tins and pouches incorporate famous-name cosmetics and aspirational lifestyle-branding elements. Airlines that win TravelPlus Awards enjoy international accolades and ‘Star-Status’ ratings for offering their customers the very best-in-class design and quality of Amenity Kits.'
