High Bid Wins: Airlines Offer Free Access to eBay

The shopping mall in the sky is getting bigger by about 300 million items, but you won't find them in the SkyMall catalog or on the duty-free cart. Fliers on Delta Air Lines and Virgin America can now use the in-flight Wi-Fi provided by Gogo to get free access to eBay any time they're above 10,000 feet. "[We] recently launched our new multimedia platform that offers passengers access to numerous activities, including online shopping, gaming and [movies]," said Ash ElDifrawi, Gogo's chief marketing officer, via email.
