This inventive app enables passengers to report [uncomfortable temperatures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wati) in real-time, while in the cabin. While it may seem as though passengers are just complaining, having a [poor flight temperature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coolify-air) can be a potentially dangerous experience. This app was designed following the realization that the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA) and the Department of Transportation (DOT) don't have temperature standards. With the 2Hot2Cold app, passengers can safely report when they feel uncomfortable in order to stay safe and enhance the overall customer experience.
