Qantas Airways to offer in-flight iPads
Qantas Airways has announced plans to offer Apple iPads to passengers on its Jetstar flights, MarketWatch reports. “We’re in the final stages of putting in place what would be a broader roll out across the network,” a Jetstar spokesman said in an interview Monday. “We’re in ongoing discussion with the manufacturer around a more integrated network proposition.” According to the spokesman, the iPad will be made available to passengers on domestic and long-haul Jetstar flights after a successful trial of the service. No information on what apps or other entertainment options might be pre-loaded on the devices was given. [via MDN]
