Meridian Audio has been chosen by Avianca to bring the Meridian headset to its Business Class cabins, extending British acoustic engineering into Latin America's growing aviation market.

The Meridian Headset pairs a custom-engineered speaker unit with noise cancellation, delivering clearer, more comfortable sound tailored to Avianca's Business Class cabin environment.

A Legacy in the Skies

Founded in 1919, Avianca is one of the world's oldest airlines and a leading carrier in Latin America, operating more than 150 routes and over 700 daily flights to more than 75 destinations across more than 25 countries in the Americas and Europe.

With Avianca, Meridian extends its presence in Latin America, bringing British acoustic engineering and passenger comfort expertise to one of the world's most dynamic aviation markets.

"Avianca's experience in the skies, paired with their genuine focus on the passenger journey, made them a natural customer for Meridian. In the cabin, great audio is about more than entertainment alone. It's about helping passengers listen more comfortably and feel less fatigued over the course of the journey,"

Iwona Helfer, Meridian Audio's Partnership and Events Manager.

Tuned for Clarity, Not Just Comfort

At the heart of the Meridian Headset for Avianca is a custom speaker unit, engineered for the realities of air travel and built to deliver clear, balanced sound that stays comfortable to listen to over long periods.

The adaptive noise cancellation reduces the constant background noise of the aircraft, while extra clarity in the frequencies most common in speech makes dialogue in films and podcasts easier to follow, reducing the strain that can build up over longer flights.

Business Class, Across the Americas

Avianca's modern fleet is built primarily around the Airbus A320 family and Boeing 787 Dreamliner, covering both short and long-haul journeys. As of January 2026, the airline has expanded its Business Class Americas product to 47 domestic routes across Colombia, Ecuador and Guatemala, bringing the Meridian Headset to more passengers than ever.
