Bright Breaks, a leading provider of workplace wellness solutions, announced today that its innovative short-form wellness breaks will be featured on the Air Canada in-flight entertainment system beginning February 1, 2025. This marks a significant milestone for the Halifax-based startup, bringing its unique blend of mindfulness, yoga, and stretching to passengers across the globe.

"We are thrilled that Air Canada will offer Bright Breaks content to its passengers," said David Howe, CEO of Bright Breaks. "Our team has meticulously crafted content specifically designed for the unique challenges of air travel, helping passengers relax, stretch, and improve their overall well-being during their journey."

Bright Breaks' signature 7-minute programs, developed through extensive research and experimentation, offer a perfect antidote to the stresses of air travel. From easing flight anxiety to alleviating the physical discomfort of prolonged sitting, Bright Breaks' curated content provides passengers with the tools to arrive at their destination feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

"At Air Canada, we’re committed to enhancing the flying experience and making those long travel days more enjoyable for our customers," said Dr. Jim Chung, Air Canada’s Chief Medical Officer. "We understand that stress can set in well before takeoff, so our Bright Breaks curated content offers a perfect solution to help passengers ease their anxieties, manage stress, and create a more positive journey from departure to arrival.”

Unlike generic mindfulness content found on some other airlines, Bright Breaks' offerings are uniquely tailored to the in-flight environment. Dedicated Bright Breaks educators developed these programs specifically for Air Canada’s passengers, ensuring that each pose and exercise can be safely and effectively performed within the confines of an airplane seat.

This collaboration with Air Canada represents a significant achievement for the growing Halifax-based startup. Bright Breaks has quickly gained traction across North America, serving a diverse clientele ranging from small businesses to large enterprises. This integration with a global leader like Air Canada solidifies Bright Breaks' position as a leading innovator in the workplace wellness space.
