With the accessibility of online casinos growing leaps and bounds, it is no
surprise that internet gamers and bettors can now gamble at online casino sites
in the mid-air. Of course, cell phones and other mobile devices now afford
bettors access to online gambling at just about any time and place.
However, what is so interesting about this new air-flight casino gambling is
that the airlines themselves are making it happen.
The first airline to really bring attention to it was the British
mega-airline, Virgin, who has been devising plans to even offer an entire casino
on their jumbo planes. Then came Ryan Air, which is now offering an online
gambling portal via their highly popular website - which players can then use to
winnings to redeem airline tickets.
Now, Jet Blue is trying to get a piece of the action. Beginning this
week, Jet Blue Flight 292 will offer all passengers of legal age the chance to
gamble at an online casino while flying on the plane. Using the technology
that brought mini-screens to the backs of every passenger seat, Jet Blue will be
going forward with a trial run to see how popular the online casino gambling is
with their passengers. For gamblers like myself, this is a luxury that
will be greatly appreciated.
In this day and age, it is only fitting to offer this service to those who
would like to partake. Especially in flights to Las Vegas and Atlantic
City, the online gaming portals almost guarantee to be a hit. The only
concern now is that the rudiments of travel, such as flight attendant service
and cramped seating might be a hindrance to strategy casino players.
However, a little online slot action will surly not get in anybody's way while
cruising at 20,000 feet.
