Introduction:
In this editorial, I connect airline innovation with customer-facing brand value. I’ve shaped the story to spotlight Air India’s use of CTT Systems’ humidifier not just as a tech upgrade, but as a strategic decision to lead in inflight wellness, helping readers see the link between comfort and brand positioning.
Air India is setting a new standard for passenger comfort and well-being by introducing the innovative Humidifier Onboard system in its brand-new Airbus A350-900 fleet. As the first airline in Southeast Asia and the Middle East to adopt this cutting-edge technology, Air India is transforming long-haul travel by maintaining optimal cabin humidity levels, making every journey healthier and more enjoyable.
Air India leads with Humidifier Onboard in A350-900 business class
Air India proudly becomes a pioneer in the region by equipping its A350-900 Business Class cabins with CTT Systems’ Humidifier Onboard. This breakthrough technology actively maintains relative humidity levels between 20% and 23%, a remarkable improvement compared to the typical dry cabin air of 5-10% RH found in standard business-class cabins. By recreating ground-level humidity conditions, the system drastically enhances passenger comfort, reducing dehydration and fatigue on long flights.
“We congratulate Air India on taking delivery of its first A350-900 aircraft fitted with Humidifier Onboard. The system will transform the experience beyond comfort into true well-being by generating humidity at a healthier level.”
Ola Häggfeldt, CCO at CTT Systems
Enhancing an already advanced cabin environment
The Airbus A350XWB is renowned for its state-of-the-art cabin features, including a low cabin altitude of 6,000 feet, reduced noise and vibrations, draft-free ventilation, fresher air, and multiple temperature zones. Now, with the addition of the Humidifier Onboard, Air India further elevates the passenger experience. While the A350 and Boeing 787 naturally increase humidity by only 1-2% RH, the Humidifier Onboard system fills the gap by delivering the ideal humidity level for maximum comfort and health benefits.
Commitment to passenger well-being and industry leadership
This upgrade is more than just a technical enhancement—it’s a clear commitment by Air India to prioritize passenger health and comfort. By embracing this innovative humidification technology, Air India is setting a new benchmark in aviation, inspiring the industry toward a future where air travel is synonymous with well-being and luxury.
