As part of a branch-refurbishment program Australasian travel agency group Flight Centre has chosen Hewlett-Packard Co. and New Zealand-based digital signage software supplier Wallflower, according to an announcement from Wallflower.

HP provided a complete turnkey solution including supply of hardware, software and services. The majority of Flight Centre branches have a similar installation consisting of a two-by-two video wall of 47-inch screens with a portrait format display in the window.

For the flagship Queen Street store in Auckland two video walls were installed with two window displays, one 70 inch and one 47 inch.

Starting last November, the digital signage network began progressively being rolled out throughout New Zealand. Hewlett Packard MP9 media players are used to drive the screens using Wallflower’s capability to drive multiple displays from one player, each of which can be scheduled independently. Flight Centre's head office is able to remotely manage all the displays and control media displayed on them.
