IN-FLIGHT INFORMATION SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A system for implementing an in-flight passenger information system, comprising:
- one or more ground-based servers in network communication with an airplane-based server, the one or more ground-based servers configured to execute a computer application for accessing a database containing airport infrastructure information and passenger transactional information; and
the airplane-base server in communication with one or more passenger accessible input/output devices;
wherein the one or more passenger accessible input/output devices are configured to communicate to a passenger, while onboard an airplane, passenger-selected portions of the airport infrastructure information and passenger transactional information specific to the passenger.
