As WestJet’s network continues to grow globally so do the needs of guests who travel the most. With business travellers and frequent flyers often away from home, WestJet’s Flight Light will let kids watch their parents flight in real-time and show them just how close they are to arriving home.

 

 

By using live WestJet flight data, the innovative smart nightlight will project the path of a loved one’s flight onto their child’s bedroom ceiling. Synced through the specifically-designed Flight Light App on a mobile device before take-off, parents can enter their flight number into the app to provide the Flight Light with live data including their arrival and departure times. Parents will also be able to stay connected by sending messages and emojis to the Flight Light which will be projected in real-time onto the ceiling.

 

The innovative Flight Light design takes inspiration from the WestJet 787 Dreamliner and uses its colours and shape to create a fun and interactive device. The live flight data, along with an array of starlight, will project from the wing-shaped base of the light and the device also pulsates upon flight arrival.

 

As WestJet continues to focus on technological innovation, a prototype of the Flight Light has been created and beta testing is scheduled to begin later this year. More information on Flight Light can be found by visiting westjet.com.
