Note From the EditorChanging consumer behavior is impacting the airline industry, as we depict in two stories today. In one, a Panasonic Avionics official argues that there are compelling advantages to its in-seat entertainment systems despite the fact that consumers bring their own devices on board these days, and load them up with their favorite movies and tunes.
In a second story, meanwhile, little Surf Air, with its all-you-can-fly subscription model, hopes to establish a niche with Brexpat commuters looking to dodge the long lines and hassle at Heathrow with a walk-up and hop-on-board turboprop flight from Luton to Zurich or Ibiza. Surf Air isn't making any competitors quiver at this juncture. But changing consumer behavior, yes, that's a real thing. — Dennis Schaal, Executive Editor |
