If you are a person who flies regularly, this may interest you, since Air Francea popular airline in Europe, would have reached a agreement with Apple so that all its passengers can watch movies and series on its platform, for free.
This is something new, since it allows the traveler to see something that, on land, they could not, unless it was done with the subscription, so there is the option of getting hooked on something, and wanting to continue watching it later, thus ensuring that someone ends up using the Apple TV app.
Air France will give away Apple TV on its flights
If you've ever taken a long flight and ended up watching something just to kill time, this is going to sound good to you. Air France has reached an agreement with Apple to Put Apple TV content on your flightsand the idea is that the trip becomes a little less burdensome.
Basically, when you are flying on long routes, you will be able to watch Apple TV series and shows directly on the plane's entertainment system. It's not that they give you the entire catalog, but they do give you a fairly decent selection, with well-known series that many people are already watching (they want you to see the most popular so that you get hooked and when you get off the plane you sign up for the plan).
Besides, If you use the plane's WiFi, you can access it in the same way, without it needing to be on the seat screen itself. This is good, especially since many people already travel with their headphones, their iPad or their laptop, and prefer to use their own device rather than fighting with the screen in the seat. Here the experience is more similar to being at home, but at 10,000 meters above sea level.
It is not the most interesting novelty on a flight, but it is important for many people who travel daily and are tired of the same free catalog that all airlines offer, which is already starting to get tiring, and only has old and repetitive content.
Furthermore, it is not something specific. Air France wants to renew the contentso it won't always be the same. Today you see one series, in a few months there may be different ones, which makes it a little more fun if you fly frequently.
In short: if you fly with Air France, you now have more options to entertain yourself without worrying about downloading anything before leaving home. You sit down, the plane takes off, you choose a series and the trip goes by much faster. Let's hope that it is not the only one with this proposal, and other companies also join in, since you may get used to it, but when you have to travel with another, you will miss this.
And you, do you think it is a good collaboration between both companies? Would you give Apple TV a chance if it is free on a flight, where you have nothing else to do? Leave us a comment with your opinion about it, and if all this catches your attention.
