Seawings Seaplane Adventures

Luxury aerial experience of Dubai’s iconic Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab and The Palm Jumeriah

Seawings is a Seaplane tour company based in Dubai, offering a unique aerial view of Dubai's iconic locations.

Gently take off from the pristine waters of Dubai and effortlessly ascent to the skies. Spectacular views, spacious cabin, luxury seating, individual window seats and five star service on every flight.

Problem

When we received this project, not much thought had been put behind the design or user experience. The website was built on an existing WordPress theme that was not responsive, primarily informative, bookings were made through phone calls only.

Solution

As Seawings’ primary purpose was to offer individuals visiting Dubai an aerial tour of Dubai’s iconic locations, we wanted to make sure visitor had the option to do this as quickly and as easy as possible through their mobile phone. 

We designed and developed a fully responsive website with a mobile first approach. Users have the opportunity to easily select the date, search for flight tour, and confirm whichever flight tour and flight time is convenient for them. 

My Role

Assisted in user experience research and design. Developed the website front-end as a custom WordPress theme.

Team

Cross-functional partnership between designers and back-end developers
