Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for a transportation vehicle. One method includes generating Wireless Internet Service Provider ('WISP') voucher codes and associated WISP data into a loadable package to establish Internet connections on a plurality of aircrafts; utilizing the associated WISP data to selectively load a subset of WISP voucher codes to an aircraft; deploying a WISP voucher code from the subset for each passenger seat on the aircraft, based on an event; updating a data structure upon deployment of each WISP voucher code to indicate deployed and unused WISP voucher codes of the subset; presenting the WISP voucher code to each passenger seat; determining that a number of unused WISP voucher codes of the subset have reached a threshold value; obtaining additional WISP voucher codes for the aircraft; and deleting the WISP voucher code associated with each passenger seat, upon flight termination.
