Singapore Airlines Enhances KrisWorld Inflight Entertainment

From 1 October 2009, Singapore Airlines passengers will be able to enjoy the airline’s latest version of KrisWorld, its inflight entertainment system.

KrisWorld, available in all classes and offering more than 1000 on-demand options, is fitted on the airline’s Boeing 777-300ER, Airbus A380, Airbus A340-500 and Airbus A330-300 aircraft.

The new ‘Live’ concert features will be one of two additions in the “Stage Performances” category, which will kick off with recent years’ concert performances by Christina Aguilera, Barry Manilow, Take That and The Pussycat Dolls, in addition to Aaron Kwok and Sarah Brightman.

The other addition will be stand-up comedies, featuring performances by well-known comedy kings Rowan Atkinson and D.L. Hughley.

The “Stage Performances” category will continue to feature recent operas, musicals, orchestral performances, and ballet and modern dance. A refreshed lineup in October will include the inspiring Mendelssohn Gala 2009 orchestral performance held in Leipzig in February 2009 and Richard Strauss’ most popular opera, Der Rosenkavalier.

In addition, a new “Classic Comedies” channel in the “Comedy” category of the TV section will feature some of the best evergreen comedies from each decade, starting with The Black Adder, followed by Fawlty Towers, Friends and I Love Lucy, in addition to the current award-winning sitcoms.

The airline’s KrisWorld inflight entertainment magazine will also take on a refreshed look come October 2009 with an improved layout and re-organised sections to make browsing that little bit easier.
