INFLIGHT ENTERTAINMENT takes us behind the scenes of the airline industry through the eyes of Tal Harris.

Through his journey Tal shares his triumphs and setbacks, all the while demonstrating his thirst for adventure and desire to get the most out of life.

Beyond the comical adventures and experiences, all of which Tal would never take back, we get to observe Tal’s colourul character bloom as he drinks in all life has to offer.  Tal’s story teaches us to reach for our dreams, imagine any possibility and ultimately live life to the fullest. It implores us not to take life too seriously, chase dreams, and look behind doors; and it’s never too late to start.

Discover as Tal having lost his pension, as a result of his airline declaring bankruptcy, seemingly down and out, is forced to draw on his experience and never-say-die attitude to survive in the skies.

INFLIGHT ENTERTAINMENT takes you into some very reputable and some less than reputable drinking establishments throughout the world. Tal’s recollection of events is phenomenally vivid - especially those events that no amount of alcohol could let him forget. Join Tal and his adventures in INFLIGHT ENTERTAINMENT.
