We're at the beginning with Iptk. The company highlites this:

"I can advise that the flight trials went as planned, and we are still flying the system while commercial discussion are in progress. We will continue to add new capability which I hope to expand on in the coming weeks. P.s one passenger set a new record. 23 texts in less than 2 minutes."

Which shows the passenger potential and certainly the ease of use of text messaging with fflya. But I keep coming back to this:

Hyping the passenger benefits of the fflya solution likely misses the key value proposition for an airline. The potential operational and back-office benefits could prove dramatic, even on a very, very lightweight connection link. Payment processing is an important low-hanging fruit to secure. And it is easily addressed over the small connection. For a carrier with a significant in-flight sales operation, reducing the fraud and increasing the average transaction size likely covers the cost of the implementation.

It may not be just passengers asking for fflya. One airline that proves the money saving potential I see in fflya will have most of them knocking at the door. Especially since installation can be done without FAA certification, and during regular maintenance. Even overnight in some cases.
