Welcome to The Hear Me Out! [CC] Podcast, an audio show (with transcripts included) where we listen to stories from fascinating individuals in and around the d/Deaf community and from your host, yours truly, Ahmed Khalifa.

I have flown with various airlines and on some long-distance flights too. While I was happy to work on the plane and read my books, I also wanted to used the in-flight entertainment if it was available.

But unfortunately, I was not able to (ever) have good experiences simply because they are rarely captioned.

Even though various airlines proudly boast about catering for deaf and hard of hearing passengers (and they do on most occasions), it's clear that they are still way behind with their in-flight entertainment, as most of the films are not captioned and (in my experience), neither are the TV programmes either.

Yet, we have to pay the same price as everyone else for a lesser experience. Is that fair?

This is the audio of a YouTube video and you can watch the video version of this podcast or read the transcript here.
