Indian airline enabling women to see where other females are sitting

India’s largest airline is trialling a new feature for females to be able to choose to sit next to other females on its flights. Live from a Lounge reports “While checking in my wife for an upcoming flight on IndiGo, I noticed pink bobbleheads on board, rather than just the standard grey ones, to indicate that these were the spots where women patrons of the airline were seated on board.” It is currently in pilot mode and will display as long as there is a female on the booking. Male passengers won’t be able to see if the passenger next to them is a woman. The airline said the feature aims to make the travel experience more comfortable for its female passengers and is visible only during web check-in, as part of its “#GirlPower ethos”. “We are committed to providing an unparalleled travel experience for all our passengers, and this new feature is just one of the many steps we are taking towards achieving that goal,” the airline said. IndiGo is not the first airline to do this, but it is the largest. India’s Vistara has used a similar concept, referred to as Vistara WomanFlyer.<br/>
