08 May 2006
American Airlines is to introduce DVD board games into its package of in-flight entertainment.
In total 48 different games will be made available before films are shown to test passengers' knowledge of film, TV and music trivia.
Mary McKee, of American Airlines, said: 'The pilot test showed us the value of offering passengers new and different forms of entertainment.
'Screenlife games have the power to engage a diverse audience, so they're a great fit for American Airlines. Our customers enjoy the variety provided by the game content, and we are pleased to continue offering onboard trivia for their entertainment.'
The games included film and TV clips along with questions and features moments from Titanic, Gladiator and Friends.
The games will be introduced across the airline's fleet over the next year, meaning eventually around 4.4 m people will be testing their pop culture knowledge at 30,000 feet each month.
