In addition to our existing and ever-growing library of inflight content such as movies and games, Beond will showcase stunning resort destinations and activities in the Maldives. We are working now with partners in the Maldives to prepare truly amazing footage. The inflight experience will build anticipation for passengers before they arrive in the Maldives. Offering the Apple Vision Pro is another step in our vision of delivering a premium travel experience to our customers, from the start to finish of their journey. We’re proud to be the first airline to deploy the technology.”
Beond also claims to be the world's first premium leisure airline that offers “unique and tailored experiences for today's modern travellers.” The company is also expected to initiate flights from a variety of destinations with the latest aviation and luxury travel innovations.
