Fumble what?
It's a completely regulatory captured industry that makes the majority of its profit from being financially engineered gift card style quasi banking institutions via their milage program agreements.
This is just more cash off the top. Free $$$$.
It's truly amazing....they must stand at the front of meetings and just ask "how do we make our passengers hate us most?"
Maybe I don't understand the economics of this move, but are they really going to make that much more money from targeted ads? If it's double the price, I assume it's worth it, but if it's a ~10% gain it's just dumb.
Numbers must go up at all costs. By the time the company's reputation hit rock bottom, the CEO already jumped ship to the next company.
Airlines in America really suck, I feel like we have much better options here in Europe

And for the low, low price of $4,99 you will get not one, not two but three ad blocking devices you can use to stop these ads from bothering you! Available in several cute patterns and colors. Get yours now, call now!
(warning: do not wash these cloths above 105°F or there might be ad-spillage while using the ad blocker due to shrinkage)
Most people will be too busy with their laptops, tablets, and phones to pay any attention to whatever ads they put on those screens.
