Re: Different pricing model

They do offer a few different options, but nothing close to $50/year. The fact that their plans are only good for a single airline indicates that the prices are relatively high because each airline is raking in a hefty portion of this fee. The airlines don't really want this to succeed. At least, it certainly doesn't seem like they do.

The link to the pricing is provided in the news article.

From what I read the airlines can either buy the equipment for $100K and then share its revenue, or allow aircell to install the equipment on their plane, but then Aircell keeps all the revenue.

The reason why you have to pay per airline is the money goes towards that airlines contract and can't be used towards another airlines contract.
I would imagine this will change in a few years after everyone makes enough to pay for all the equipment and installation.
