I fly frequently and am heading out to California this week, and thought to myself that I know still in theater movies play on long distance flights for free on some carriers. For free meaning, it's included in the fare, and I'm hoping that Guardians 2 might be on by the time I fly back in 2 weeks. That got me wondering though, surely the airlines pays to access still in theater movies, so does that reflect in the box office results? And if not, how much money do these films make which never show up in box office results? Hummmmmmmmmmmm

I don't think what airlines pay to show the movie is added to the box office total.

I don't think what airlines pay to show the movie is added to the box office total. I don't think so either, which makes you wonder how much money they get for something like that. It must be a ton. They aren't just letting the airlines show them for free, and they have an audience of 10's of thousands who are potentially undermining what they would earn if those people could only see it in theater. I'm think they'd have to get a few bucks every time somebody turned it on. |

Most of the time I fly on Alaska Airlines and they have several movies to show on their media players. I figure maybe they just pay a distribution company a fee to get a set of movies. Like you said it probably costs them a lot of money.
