Akasa Air has introduced its in-flight safety manual in braille for the visually impaired.

Developed in partnership with the Xavier’s Resource Centre for the Visually Challenged (XRCVC), the manual provides an explanation of safety instruction in English and Hindi.

It covers detailed instructions on seatbelt operation, location of emergency exits and life jackets, tactile diagrams that help orient passengers to aircraft and aircraft positions and other essential safety information. 

Belson Coutinho, Co-Founder and Chief Marketing & Experience Officer, Akasa Air, said, “We are extremely grateful to the entire team at XRCVC for their guidance and constant support.” 

“Akasa Air’s braille in-flight safety manual is an example of an airline taking a step towards social inclusion,” added Dr Sam Taraporevala, Executive Director, XRCVC.
