Technology is described for providing electronic product listings for products available at a destination. In one example of the technology, destination information may be obtained from an aircraft data bus, where the destination information may be from a plurality of aircraft information systems located on the aircraft. The destination information may be sent to one or more vendor application programming interfaces (APIs) to obtain product details for at least one product that is available for purchase through an inflight entertainment system and available to be delivered to a customer at a flight destination. Product details received from a vendor API may be sent to a client device to be displayed in a graphical user interface of an inflight entertainment system, allowing a passenger on the aircraft to view the product details with a plurality of product details for a plurality of products and purchase the product through the inflight entertainment system.

Providing product listings on an aircraft for products available at a destination

Methods, systems, and devices are described for providing selectable service offerings to mobile users via mobile terminals over a satellite communication system. In embodiments, a database of access profiles for accessing a network via the wireless communication system may be maintained, wherein each access profile corresponds to a service offering of a plurality of service offerings selectable via the plurality of devices and is associated with a set of network destinations within the network. In embodiments, a request is received from a device of the plurality of devices for a particular service offering of the plurality of service offerings. An access profile may be identified from the database that is associated with the particular service offering. Communications may be permitted between the device and the respective set of network destinations associated with the identified access profile.

Personalized connectivity service offerings

Technology is described for providing electronic advertisements on an aircraft. A server onboard the aircraft may receive a notification that a public announcement is occurring on the aircraft. The server may identify an announcement tag associated with the public announcement. The server may select an electronic advertisement based in part on the announcement tag associated with the public announcement. The electronic advertisement may be selected from a data store of electronic advertisements. The server may send the electronic advertisement to a client device to be displayed via a graphical user interface on the client device after the public announcement is finished.

Systems and methods for delivery of advertisements related to public announcements onboard mobile vehicles

Methods, systems, and devices are described for providing selectable content offerings to mobile users via mobile terminals over a satellite system. In embodiments, a database of access profiles for accessing a network via the satellite system may be maintained. Each access profile corresponds to a respective content category of a plurality of content categories and is associated with a respective set of content sources available via the network. Devices may be provided with a respective set of content categories for display based at least in part on a device-specific profile associated with the corresponding device. In embodiments, a request is received from particular device for a particular content category. An access profile may be identified from the database that is associated with the particular content offering. Communications may be permitted between the device and the respective set of content sources associated with the content category associated with the access profile.

Personalized connectivity user-specific content offerings

Methods, systems, and devices for providing in-flight communication sessions. In some examples, a communication session delivery system may provide network access service or other types of content once a passenger has completed a brand interaction. The brand interaction may be any number of options that a brand partner may require in exchange for access to content. The communication session delivery system may choose from a plurality of reward offers and then display the chosen offers to a passenger. The chosen offers may be selected based on profile information of a passenger and characteristics targeted by a brand partner. The passenger may then choose an offer and perform the required brand interaction. Once the brand interaction has been verified, the passenger may receive the reward associated with the offer.
