She said: “Dayholi was founded with the goal of enabling everyone in the world to travel without any limits. No limits on time, money, health and sustainability. Dayholi beams people into new realities through immersive 8K quality virtual experiences that tap into all the senses.

“We increase revenues by creating ‘Day Passengers’. They go through the whole process, go into the VR dome and travel all over the world (virtually). After the experience, we can partner with the F&B concessions and travel retail brands to tie in their offer with the Dayholi experience.

“With our technology, we can enhance brand experiences through virtual reality technology, increase retail loyalty and maximise entertainment at lounges and gates. We think Dayholi can also enhance staff training by giving them an enjoyable and interactive experience.”
