Global Average Flight Time is More than Visiting Your Local Retail Outlet

According to airline industry stats, the worldwide average flight time per passenger trip is approximately three-and-a-half hours. A person spends about 30 minutes, on average, shopping in a single store, and approximately three-and-a-half hours, on average, in a shopping mall in general, where shopping is frequently mixed in with other activities, such as eating and/or perhaps watching a movie. When you think about it, a person's shopping mall experience is strikingly similar to the average flight experience of today. But there is one exception, the shopping.

What airlines offer onboard today is not much different than 30 years ago: alcohol, cosmetics, perfume, tobacco, watches, and gadgets. Now, imagine your passengers ordering and sending flowers or other gifts during flight; buying tickets to a Broadway or a West End theatre production or even a sporting event. Imagine they can order a limousine, or buy a train, or a bus ticket to take them, upon arrival, to their final destination. GuestLogix is now making much of this possible with our In-Flight Box Office™ service. Whether it's tickets to Mama Mia! or Disney theme parks, Airport Express tickets or a City Pass, through partnerships with ticket vendors, we are building a substantial inventory of ticketing offers to enhance your passengers' travel experience. The best part of In-Flight Box Office™ is your airline business and your crew can financially benefit through our unique sales commission model. Stay tuned for more monthly news on this front, as carriers begin pilot programs.
