Virgin Atlantic Airlines have improved access, for blind and partially sighted travellers, to their in-flight entertainment systems.

Blind and partially sighted people can now use the airline's own iPads, on board, to view movies, tv box sets or listen to music or talking books, without having to ask staff or fellow passengers to help select or play them.

RNIB Connect Radio's Allan Russell spoke with Geraldine Lundy, Virgin Atlantic, David Brown, from software developers Blue Box, and Paul Smith, a blind tester, to learn more about the product.
