Akasa Air’s “QuietFlights”
Akasa Air has introduced “QuietFlights” “as a part of its commitment to ensure a restful and comfortable inflight experience for passengers travelling during early morning and late-night hours”.
For flights operating between 2200 hours and 0600 hours (between 10 PM and 6 AM), the airline will minimise announcements to essential safety messages and adjust cabin lighting “to create a calming environment, allowing passengers to enjoy uninterrupted relaxation and privacy”.
At Akasa, we value the importance of privacy and peace of mind while flying, and we are pleased to introduce ‘QuietFlights’. This new initiative reinforces our commitment to create a comfortable, relaxed and peaceful cabin experience.
In today’s fast-paced day-to-day lifestyle, QuietFlights has been consciously designed to help passengers unwind with announcements minimised to the essential safety announcements combined with ambient cabin lighting that creates a calming inflight experience.
Belson Coutinho, Co-Founder and Chief Marketing & Experience Officer, Akasa Air said.

Thoughts
If you have taken a flight in India, you may be well aware of the numerous announcements made about Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), about the help desk etc among others. I personally get fed up with these announcements after a certain point of time. There should be a limit on how many announcements should be made other than the safety briefings and some important ones.
If the government wants to let passengers be aware of the different types of help services available to them, there are always other options available to help market the services. It’s good to see Akasa come up with a concept like this and I hope other airlines follow suit.
