IFE safety
Hi,
I am a flying enthusiast, but also a somewhat nervous flyer- go figure! I usually fly on the ultra long hauls with Emirates or Singapore Airlines to Asia. I always notice the IFE screens are so hot and wonder about their safety. I was checking online for articles, and found an article that raised questions for me :

So, how safe are the IFE systems? Do I need to stop being anxious? I fly to Dubai very soon on Emirates and want to enjoy their great ICE system instead of worrying.
Thank you for your response!

Welcome to FlyerTalk!
Aircraft systems have to go through a lengthy certification process, so you can be assured there is nothing to worry about. Sorry, but the link you posted seems to go to an expired page, so I'm not sure what caused you concern in what you read.
