Abstract: Systems and methods for arranging ground transportation for a debarking air traveler based on a curb arrival time is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system comprises a server with a processing unit coupled to a memory unit and a server communication unit, wherein the processing unit is programed to receive GPS coordinates from at least one of a GPS unit of a traveler client device and an in-flight locational unit of an aircraft carrying the air traveler; calculate a curb arrival time of the air traveler using an arrival estimation algorithm, wherein the arrival estimation algorithm uses as an input at least one of the GPS coordinates, an aircraft landing signal, and a map of an arriving airport; and transmit the curb arrival time of the air traveler to at least one of a ride-sharing server and a driver client device.

Abstract: An improved user experience is provided for passengers on a vessel such as an airplane, train or ship. Passengers can customize their travel experience ahead of time by accessing a web-based server system to indicate preferences with respect to a number of in-flight entertainment options. The passenger's experience is also enhanced by allowing passengers to share preferences such as media playlists with others. Meals can be ordered on-demand once on board, and seat-to-seat chat as well as group chatting is also made available through an in-seat or other proximate entertainment device.
